If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy. Of all the enemies to public liberty, war is perhaps the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. – James Madison

I agree to this Constitution with all its faults because I think a general government necessary for us, and believe further that this is likely to be well-administered for a course of years, and can only end in despotism, as other forms have done before it, when the people shall become so corrupted as to need despotic government, being incapable of any other. -- Benjamin Franklin

If you were free of self interest... and very few of us can make that claim... the world would look like a seething madhouse of runaway appetites. -- les visible
