Liberty And Good Government Do Not Exclude Each Other; And There Are Excellent Reasons Why They Should Go Together. Liberty Is Not A Means To A Higher Political End. It Is Itself The Highest Political End.

There Are Many Things The Government Cant Do, Many Good Purposes It Must Renounce. It Must Leave Them To The Enterprise Of Others. It Cannot Feed The People. It Cannot Enrich The People. It Cannot Teach The People. It Cannot Convert The People.

Moral Precepts Are Constant Through The Ages And Not Obedient To Circumstances.
