to think, speak, write and worship as they wish,
not as the Government commands."

Reader comments about this quote:
This really applies to what is happening to our country these days. For example, taking prayer out of school, pledging allegiance to the flag, removing the ten commandments from offical offices and the simple fact we cannot say how we really feel about the President of the United States without someone accusing you of threatening the President.
