I've been watching The Wire recently.

There have been times throughout American history where what is right is not the same as what is legal. Sometimes to do the right thing you have to break the law.

Arguing that you don't care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say.

Your rights matter, because you never know when you're going to need them.

It is afraid of an informed, angry public demanding the constitutional government it was promised - and it should be.

I don't want to live in a world where there's no privacy, and therefore no room for intellectual exploration and creativity.

Truth is coming, and it cannot be stopped.

Privacy matters; privacy is what allows us to determine who we are and who we want to be.

The US government still has no idea what documents I have because encryption works

We need to think about encryption not as this sort of arcane, black art. It's a basic protection.

Because, remember, I didn't want to change society. I wanted to give society a chance to determine if it should change itself.

Delighting in the Lord alters the desires.

Steadfastness is a noble quality, but unguided by knowledge or humility, it becomes rashness, or obstinacy.

I'm a folk preacher. A folk therapist. A folk musician. I come from authentically that which is of my experience. Therefore, the music is strictly from the soul, strictly improvisational.

The word 'living' has so many connotations that I'm almost reluctant to try to define it scientifically because it sounds as if I'm then downgrading all the other significances of that word.

Fame is not just. She never finely or discriminatingly praises, but coarsely hurrahs.

I am very much a seat-of-the-pants actor. I will prepare when I have to. But I like being unprepared.

Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.

I'm a producer... I am a Hollywood producer. That is so weird. And it's not lame. But it's just like, how did that happen?

Act in such a way that your humility may not be weakness, nor your authority be severity. Justice must be accompanied by humility, that humility may render justice lovable.

Every man should ask himself each day whether he is not too readily accepting negative solutions.
