Jeffrey Rosen Quotes About Vision

Quotes about: Vision

• For [Louis] Brandeis, you know, ethnicity and background are much less important than facts and reason. And he believes that far from wanting to efface our diversity of perspectives, we have to embrace it because that makes us more American, not less.
