An Injustice To One Is A Threat

They Who Love To Inform Themselves, Are Never Idle. Though I Have No Business Of Consequence To Take Care Of, I Am Nevertheless Continually Employed. I Spend My Life In Examining Things: I Write Down In The Evening Whatever I Have Remarked, What I Have Seen, And What I Have Heard In The Day: Every Thing Engages My Attention, And Every Thing Excites My Wonder: I Am Like An Infant, Whose Organs, As Yet Tender, Are Strongly Affected By The Slightest Objects.

Experience Constantly Proves That Every Man Who Has Power Is Impelled To Abuse It; He Goes On Till He Is Pulled Up By Some Limits. Who Would Say It! Virtue Even Has Need Of Limits.
