Party Leads To Vicious, Corrupt And Unprofitable

No Civilized Society Can Long Exist, With An Active Power In Its Bosom That Is Stronger Than The Law.

How Easy It Is For Generous Sentiments, High Courtesy, And Chivalrous Courage To Lose Their Influence Beneath The Chilling Blight Of Selfishness, And To Exhibit To The World A Man Who Was Great In All The Minor Attributes Of Character, But Who Was Found Wanting When It Became Necessary To Prove How Much Principle Is Superior To Policy.

The Ability To Discriminate Between That Which Is True And That Which Is False Is One Of The Last Attainments Of The Human Mind.

Equality, In A Social Sense, May Be Divided Into That Of Condition, And That Of Rights. Equality Of Condition Is Incompatible With Civilization, And Is Found Only To Exist In Those Communities That Are But Slightly Removed From The Savage State. In Practice, It Can Only Mean A Common Misery. Equality Of Rights Is A Peculiar Feature Of Democracies. These Rights Are Properly Divided Into Civil And Political, Though Even These Definitions Are Not To Be Taken As Absolute, Or As Literally Exact.

It Is Seldom Men Think Of Death In The Pride Of Their Health And Strength.
