Here are my favorite lines from the show--and especially relevant during our current national climate:
A decision must be made in the life of every nation...
at the very moment when the grasp of the enemy is at its throat.
Then it seems that the only way to survive is to use the means of the enemy...
to rest survival upon what is expedient,to look the other way.
The answer to that is: Survival as what?
A country isn't a rock. It's not an extension of one's self.
It's what it stands for.
It's what it stands for when standing for something is the most difficult.
Before the people of the world, let it now be noted
that here in our decision,this is what we stand for:
Justice,truth,and the value of a single human being.

Feel free to comment--but all comments will be reviewed by me before they get posted. I will not post anything scurrilous about Ivy Tech students, faculty, or staff, or about members of the local community. Truth is not a defense. This just isn't going to be that kind of blog.
