“The people cannot delegate to government the power to do anything which would be unlawful for them to do themselves.”

“But if the laws are to be so trampled upon with impunity, and a minority is to dictate to the majority, there is an end put at one stroke to republican government, and nothing but anarchy and confusion is to be expected thereafter.”

“The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury.”

“The trouble with government as it is, is that it doesn't represent the people. It controls them.”

“The government has no money of its own. It's all your money.”

“The most precious of all possessions is power over ourselves.”

“What worries you, masters you.”
