First Principles: Where There Is No Law, There Is No Liberty; and Nothing Deserves the Name of Law But That Which Is Certain and Universal In Its Operation Upon All the Members of the Community
“Where there is no law, there is no liberty; and nothing deserves the name of law but that which is certain and universal in its operation upon all the members of the community.” – Benjamin Rush (1788)
Thought For the Day: Make Mankind Wise and By That Very Operation You Make Them Free
“Make men wise, and by that very operation you make them free. Civil liberty follows as a consequence of this; no usurped power can stand against the artillery of opinion.” – William Godwin (1756-1836)
