[free-sklyarov] An interesting quote...

"Is it true, then, that any right, plainly written in the
Constitution, has been denied? I think not. Happily the human mind
is so constituted, that no party can reach to the audacity of doing
this. Think, if you can, of a single instance in which a plainly
written provision of the Constitution has ever been denied. If, by
the mere force of numbers, a majority should deprive a minority of
any clearly written constitutional right, it might, in a moral
point of view, justify revolution-certainly would, if such a right
were a vital one."

Abraham Lincoln,  First Inaugural Address, March 4, 1861
