2 . Adapted from John Twelve Hawks’s The Traveler: “If privacy had a tombstone, it would read this was for your own good.”

The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding.”—Justice Louis Brandeis, dissenting in Olmstead v. United States, 277 U.S. 438, 479 (1928).

20 . Though typically attributed to Benjamin Franklin by a wide variety of sources, others have claimed that it was developed by a newspaper journalist in the twentieth century. The opinions and accuracies of such attribution vary. Since it sounds like Ben Franklin, I attribute it to him.
