The Best Protection For The People Is

The Man Who Flies Shall Fight Again. [lat., Qui Fugiebat, Rusus Praeliabitur.]

The More Able A Man Is, If He Make Ill Use Of His Abilities, The More Dangerous Will He Be To The Commonwealth.

What A Man Wishes, He Will Believe.

It Is Not Possible To Found A Lasting Power Upon Injustice, Perjury, And Treachery. These May, Perhaps, Succeed For Once, And Borrow For Awhile, From Hope, A Gay And Flourishing Appearance. But Time Betrays Their Weakness, And They Fall Into Ruin Of Themselves. For, As In Structures Of Every Kind, The Lower Parts Should Have The Greatest Firmness--so The Grounds And Principles Of Actions Should Be Just And True.

What We Wish, That We Readily Believe.
