Here
are some of my favorite quotes from the book.
“I can't go underground for a year, ten years, my whole life,
waiting for freedom to be handed to me. Freedom is something you have to take
for yourself.”
“Skipping school isn't a crime. It's an infraction. They're
totally different.”
“It's our goddamed city! It's our goddamed country. No terrorist
can take it from us for so long as we're free. Once we're not free, the
terrorists win! Take it back! You're young enough and stupid enough not to know
that you can't possibly win, so you're the only ones who can lead us to
victory! Take it back!”
“The Bill of Rights was written before data-mining," he
said. He was awesomely serene, convinced of his rightness. "The right to
freedom of association is fine, but why shouldn't the cops be allowed to mine
your social network to figure out if you're hanging out with gangbangers and
terrorists?”
