Aristocracy Is Always Cruel.

Eternal Vigilance Is The Price Of Liberty; Power Is Ever Stealing From The Many To The Few. The Manna Of Popular Liberty Must Be Gathered Each Day Or It Is Rotten. The Living Sap Of Today Outgrows The Dead Rind Of Yesterday. The Hand Entrusted With Power Becomes, Either Form Human Depravity Or Esprit De Corps, The Necessary Enemy Of The People. Only By Continued Oversight Can The Democrat In Office Be Prevented From Hardening Into A Despot; Only By Unintermitted Agitation Can A People Be Sufficiently Awake To Principle Not To Let Liberty Be Smothered In Material Prosperity.

Exigencies Create The Necessary Ability To Meet And Conquer Them.

Society,--the Only Field Where The Sexes Have Ever Met On Terms Of Equality, The Arena Where Character Is Formed And Studied, The Cradle And The Realm Of Public Opinion, The Crucible Of Ideas, The World's University, At Once A School And A Theater, The Spur And The Crown Of Ambition, The Tribunal Which Unmasks Pretension And Stamps Real Merit, The Power That Gives Government Leave To Be, And Outruns The Lazy Church In Fixing The Moral Sense Of The Eye.

Eternal Vigilence Is The Price Of Liberty.

Every Man Meets His Waterloo At Last.
