One Good Man May Take Another's Word, If They So Agree, But A Whole Nation Ought Never To Trust To Any Honesty, But What Is Built Upon Necessity; For Unhappy Is The People, And Their Constitution Will Be Ever Precarious, Whose Welfare Must Depend Upon The Virtues And Consciences Of Ministers And Politicians.
