I have been working at a local high school since November; teaching U.S. history, government, and economics. Every day I've walk into that classroom with one goal for the students; that they will learn these words and take them to heart.
"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to
protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficial.
Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel
invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The
greater dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment
by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding."
—Justice Louis Brandeis,
Olmstead v. United States,
277 U.S. 479 (1928)
Tomorrow is the last day of my assignment at this school. I hope I have succeeded with some of them.
