Twilight

"As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we all must be most aware of change in the air - however slight - lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness."
--Letter from Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas to a group of young lawyers at the Washington State Bar Association in the wake of COINTELPRO and Watergate
