“It's a funny thing about weaknesses…. Most people will tell you they know their weaknesses. When asked, they'll tell you, 'Well for one thing, I'm overgenerous.”
... that's what innkeepers are for.

As quoted in "College" (2005), Bullshit!, HBO

You are too weak to live with the First Amendment." If someone tells you you are too weak to live with freedom, they have turned you into a child.
