Despotism Can Only Exist In

The Power Of Taxing People And Their Property Is Essential To The Very Existence Of Government.

The Right Of The Citizens To Bear Arms In Defense Of Themselves And The State Shall Not Be Questioned.

The House Of Representatives ... Can Make No Law, Which Will Not Have Its Full Operation On Themselves And Their Friends, As Well As The Great Mass Of Society. This Has Always Been Deemed One Of The Strongest Bonds By Which Human Policy Can Connect The Rulers And The People Together. It Creates Between Them That Communion Of Interest, And Sympathy Of Sentiments, Of Which Few Governments Have Furnished Examples; But Without Which Every Government Degenerates Into Tyranny.

The Temple Through Which Alone Lies The Road To That Of Liberty.

Liberty May Be Endangered By The Abuse Of Liberty, But Also By The Abuse Of Power.
