No One Ever Became, Or Can Become

A Government By The Passions Of The Multitude, Or, No Less Correctly, According To The Vices, And Ambitions Of Their Leaders Is A Democracy.

No Man Can Be A Sound Lawyer In This Land Who Is Not Well Read In The Ethics Of Moses And The Virtues Of Jesus.

No One Ever Became, Or Can Become Truly Eloquent Without Being A Reader Of The Bible, And An Admirer Of The Purity And Sublimity Of Its Language.

Liberty Is Not To Be Enjoyed, Indeed It Cannot Exist, Without The Habits Of Just Subordination; It Consists, Not So Much In Removing All Restraint From The Orderly, As In Imposing It On The Violent.

Our Liberty Depends On Our Education, Our Laws, And Habits . . . It Is Founded On Morals And Religion, Whose Authority Reigns In The Heart, And On The Influence All These Produce On Public Opinion Before That Opinion Governs Rulers.
