The distant mountains make one want to go on and on over the next ridge and over the one beyond. The call is that of a wilderness known only to a few… - William O. Douglas

"We are rapidly entering the age of no privacy, where everyone is open to surveillance at all times; where there are no secrets from government."

[Osborn v. United States, 385 U.S. 323, 341 (1966) (dissenting)]

We deal with a right of privacy older than the Bill of Rights -- older than our political parties, older than our school system. Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse, hopefully enduring, and intimate to the degree of being sacred. It is an association that promotes a way of life, not causes; a harmony in living, not political faiths; a bilateral loyalty, not commercial or social projects. Yet it is an association for as noble a purpose as any involved in our prior decisions.

Religious experiences which are as real as life to some may be incomprehensible to others.
