Quote from today's NCPRC luncheon

Wake County Commissioner Paul Coble shared the following quote at today's NCPRC luncheon:

"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the Government's purposes are beneficent. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding."
- Justice Louis Brandeis

This quote is certainly applicable to the ongoing fight to preserve our private property rights.
