My father - a blue-collar Depression kid on his own at age 16 - after combat in the Pacific became an early beneficiary of the GI Bill. He passed the notoriously difficult California Bar exam on his first go in I think 1951.
He distilled common law into two apothegms, which he repeated (and repeated...) during my time growing up at home:
1)"Your right to swing your fist ends at the tip of my nose"
and
2) "I disagree with what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it"
About covers it, I think

not sure the talking heads ever heard these growing up
