I Disbelieve All Holy Men And Holy

Government Without A Constitution, Is A Power Without A Right.

The Balance Of Power Is The Scale Of Peace. The Same Balance Would Be Preserved Were All The World Not Destitute Of Arms, For All Would Be Alike; But Since Some Will Not, Others Dare Not Lay Them Aside ... Horrid Mischief Would Ensue Were One Half The World Deprived Of The Use Of Them ... The Weak Will Become Prey To The Strong.

A Long Habit Of Not Thinking A Thing Wrong, Gives It A Superficial Appearance Of Being Right, And Raises At First A Formidable Outcry In Defense Of Custom. But The Tumult Soon Subsides. Time Makes More Converts Than Reason.

War Is The Gambling Table Of Governments, And Citizens The Dupes Of The Game.

If There Was Ever A Just War Since The World Began, It Is This In Which America Is Now Engaged.
