Thanks for reminding me of ol' Wendell, Paul:

    Freedom is an indivisible word. If we want to enjoy it, and fight
    for it, we must be prepared to extend it to everyone, whether they
    are rich or poor, whether they agree with us or not, no matter what
    their race or the colour of their skin.
                        _Our World_ (1943) ch. 13
