The grand instructor, time.
The nature of things is, I admit, a sturdy adversary.
Free trade is not based on utility but on justice.
Liberty, without wisdom, is license.
If any ask me what a free government is, I answer, that, for any practical purpose, it is what the people think so,and that they, and not I, are the natural, lawful, and competent judges of this matter.
A populace never rebels from passion for attack, but from impatience of suffering.
