Dammit.

I’m flying from New Orleans to Dallas this morning, and I just ran into LL Cool J at security. I was momentarily starstruck and all I could think to say was “wow! I love your work!”

A minute later, when it would’ve been weird to go back, I realized I should have thanked him for refusing to cross the picket line in Philly.

“If a society permits one portion of its citizenry to be menaced or destroyed, then, very soon, no one in that society is safe.

The forces thus released in the people can never be held in check, but run their devouring course, destroying the very foundations which it was
imagined they would save.”
