of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent 
encroachments of those in power than by violent and 
sudden usurpations." - US President James Madison

"To be a social conservative is to believe that the 
poor have too much money, and the rich don't have 
enough." - J.K. Galbraith


"You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get
yourself a reputation as a dangerous citizen these days
is to go about repeating the very phrases which our  
founding fathers used in the struggle for independence."
