Quote from Justice Robert H. Jackson,


"Those who begin coercive elimination of dissent
soon find themselves exterminating dissenters.
Compulsory unification of opinion achieves
only the unanimity of the graveyard."

Justice Robert H. Jackson (more quotes by Justice Robert H. Jackson or books by/about Justice Robert H. Jackson)


(1892-1954), U. S. Supreme Court Justice
