More Masters
The reach of the government continues to grow. We must ask what it receding.
Only a virtual people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.
Benjamin Franklin
Nations are made up of people. How am I doing? Am I helping or hurting?
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other
John Adams
A person needs his own limiting principles, not just the laws. There will never be enough laws for the variety of folly he is capable of.
Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whos manners are universally corrupt.
Samuel Adams
It would be wisest to take the commandments from the ultimate Lawgiver and apply them as best we may, in service of self, family, community and country. Here is another way in which man cannot serve two masters.
