"Kebiasaan melihat aturan publik, lambat laun membiasakan pikiran Amerika dengan campur tangan hak-hak pribadi yang perlahan-lahan merusak individualitas karakter nasional. Harus ada begitu banyak hak publik, bahwa hak pribadi dibayangi dan hilang. Ada bahaya bahwa ujung-ujung kebebasan akan dilupakan sama sekali di jalan."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

The habit of seen the public rule, is gradually accustoming the American mind to an interference with private rights that is slowly undermining the individuality of the national character. There is getting to be so much public right, that private right is overshadowed and lost. A danger exists that the ends of liberty will be forgotten altogether in the means.
