Liars Need To Have Good Memories.

[a]ll Popular And Well-mixed Governments [republics] . . . Are Ever Established By Wise And Good Men, And Can Never Be Upheld Otherwise Than By Virtue: The Worst Men Always Conspiring Against Them, They Must Fall, If The Best Have Not Power To Preserve Them. . . . [and] Unless They Be Preserved In A Great Measure Free From Vices . . . .

That Is The Best Government, Which Best Provides For War.

If The Public Safety Be Provided, Liberty And Propriety Secured, Justice Administered, Virtue Encouraged, Vice Suppressed, And The True Interest Of The Nation Advanced, The Ends Of Government Are Accomplished . . .

Men Lived Like Fishes; The Great Ones Devoured The Small.

God Leaves To Man The Choice Of Forms In Government; And Those Who Constitute One Form, May Abrogate It.
