Public Health

“Freedom to speak and write about public questions is as important to the life of our government as is the heart to the human body. In fact, this privilege is the heart of our government. If that heart be weakened, the result is debilitation; if it be stilled, the result is death.”

—Hugo L. Black (1886-1971), U.S. Supreme Court Justice, 1942
