Abuses Quotes

“One measure of a truly free society is the vigor with which it protects the liberties of its individual citizens. As technology has advanced in America, it has increasingly encroached on one of those liberties--what I term the right of personal privacy. Modern information systems, data banks, credit records, mailing list abuses, electronic snooping, the collection of personal data for one purpose that may be used for another--all these have left millions of Americans deeply concerned by the privacy they cherish.

And the time has come, therefore, for a major initiative to define the nature and extent of the basic rights of privacy and to erect new safeguards to ensure that those rights are respected.”

“It remains my ardent prayer that we would be compelled to repent of the abuses that we have perpetrated upon liberty, that we would rediscover freedom as a cherished privilege and not a rotting right, and that we would bow before the Creator who wove into creation itself the morals that are imperative to our own fragile existence and without which freedom itself is certain to perish. And in committing to these actions, it is my hope that we as a repentant people would breathe life back into a nation that we have drawn the very life out of.”
