When the leaders choose to make themselves bidders at an auction of popularity, their talents, in the construction of the state, will be of no service. They will become flatterers instead of legislators; the instruments, not the guides, of the people.
Fraud is the ready minister of injustice.
Responsibility prevents crimes.
Circumspection and caution are part of wisdom.
The tyranny of a multitude is a multiplied tyranny.
Politics and the pulpit are terms that have little agreement.
