"The most important political office is that of the private citizen." ― Louis D. Brandeis Topic(s): Imagination More From Louis D. Brandeis "Experience teaches us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government’s purposes are beneficent." "Those who won our independence… valued liberty as an end and as a means. They believed liberty to be the secret of happiness and courage to be the secret of liberty." "Our government… teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy." More In Imagination "The fashions of the ages vary in this direction and that, but they vary for the most part from a central road which was struck out by the imagination of Greece."― Gilbert Murray "Vision – It reaches beyond the thing that is, into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own."― Robert Collier "Television contracts the imagination and radio expands it."― Terry Wogan
