Liberty Is Not A Means To A Higher Political End. It Is Itself The Highest Political End...liberty Is The Only Object Which Benefits All Alike, And Provokes No Sincere Opposition...the Danger Is Not That A Particular Class Is Unfit To Govern. ~ Every Class Is Unfit To Govern ... Power Tends To Corrupt, And Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely. Great Men Are Almost Always Bad Men.

Fanaticism Displays Itself In The Masses; But The Masses Were Rarely Fanaticised; And The Crimes Ascribed To It Were Commonly Due To The Calculations Of Dispassionate Politicians.

Remember That One Touch Of Ill-nature Makes The Whole World Kin.
