It appeared to be the sincere and unanimous wish of the Convention to cherish and preserve the Union of the States.
Mr. Jefferson, a reform which does not make a provision for private rights, must be materially defective.
The Constitution was created by the people of the U.S. composing the respective states, who alone had the right. #ConstitutionDay2014
The executive has no right, in any case, to decide the question, whether there is, or is not, cause for declaring war.
Among the features peculiar to the political system of the U.S, is the perfect equality of rights which it secures to every religious sect.
In Republics, the great danger is, that the majority may not sufficiently respect the rights of the minority.
Wherever there is an interest and power to do wrong, wrong will generally be done.
I have seen the Bill of Rights violated in every instance where it has been opposed to a popular current.
The happy Union of these States is a wonder; their example the hope of Liberty throughout the world. #Happy4thofJuly
Happy #4thofJuly to all the citizens of the United States. Let our thoughts be with those around the world still fighting for liberty.
The latent causes of faction are sown into the nature of man.
It is a universal truth that the loss of liberty at home is to be charged to the provisions against danger, real or pretended, from abroad.
As long as the reason of man continues fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed.
The executive has no right, in any case, to decide the question, whether there is, or is not, cause for declaring war.
In Republics, the great danger is, that the majority may not sufficiently respect the rights of the minority.
Public opinion sets bounds to every government, and is the real sovereign in every free one.
@alaindebotton Let me recommend the best medicine in the world: a long journey, at a mild season, through a pleasant country, in easy stages
The happy Union of these States is a wonder; their Constitution a miracle; their example the hope of Liberty throughout the world.
