  1. A quotation from Felix Frankfurter

    The nonsectarian or secular public school was the means of reconciling freedom in general with religious freedom. The sharp confinement of the public schools to secular education was a recognition of the need of a democratic society to educate its children, insofar as the State undertook to do so, in an atmosphere free from pressures in a realm in which pressures are most resisted and where conflicts are most easily and most bitterly engendered. Designed to serve as perhaps the most powerful agency for promoting cohesion among a heterogeneous democratic people, the public school must keep scrupulously free from entanglement in the strife of sects.

    Felix Frankfurter (1882–1965) American jurist, teacher; US Supreme Court Justice (1939–62)
    McCollum v. Board of Education 333 U.S. 216–217 (1948)
    [concurring]
