“It is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt … that they are incapable of exercising the sovereignty. Usurpation is then an easy attainment, and an usurper soon found. The people themselves become the willing instruments of their own debasement and ruin…” —James Monroe (1817)

“It is an unquestionable truth, that the body of the people in every country desire sincerely its prosperity. But it is equally unquestionable that they do not possess the discernment and stability necessary for systematic government. To deny that they are frequently led into the grossest of errors, by misinformation and passion, would be a flattery which their own good sense must despise.” —Alexander Hamilton (1788)

“Don’t fire unless fired upon. But if they want a war let it begin here.” —John Parker (1775)

Today is Patriots’ Day, when we honor the anniversary of the opening salvo of the American Revolution. On this day in 1775, militia men under Captain John Parker in Lexington and under Major John Buttrick in Concord first engaged the British Red Coats. In so doing, our forefathers began the great campaign to reject tyranny and embrace the difficult toils of securing individual Liberty

“If by the liberty of the press were understood merely the liberty of discussing the propriety of public measures and political opinions, let us have as much of it as you please: But if it means the liberty of affronting, calumniating and defaming one another, I, for my part, own myself willing to part with my share of it…” —Benjamin Franklin (1789)

“As riches increase and accumulate in few hands, as luxury prevails in society, virtue will be in a greater degree considered as only a graceful appendage of wealth, and the tendency of things will be to depart from the republican standard. This is the real disposition of human nature; it is what neither the honorable member nor myself can correct. It is a common misfortunate that awaits our State constitution, as well as all others.” –Alexander Hamilton, speech to the New York Ratifying Convention, 1788
