“How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don’t think.” – Adolf Hitler

From “Lincoln 365,” by Arnold Kunst

January 28

'Allow the president to invade a neighboring nation whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion and you allow him to do so whenever he may choose to say he deems it necessary for such a purpose - and you allow him to make war at pleasure.'

- Congressman Abraham Lincoln

'Crime and punishment grow out of the one stem. Punishment is a fruit that, unsuspected, ripens with the flower of the pleasure that concealed it.'

- Ralph Waldo Emerson
