To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas whichhe disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.


'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties thanstanding armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to controlthe issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks andcorporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of allproperty until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathersconquered.
