Quote:I heard of a quote recently that is appropriate here, from one of my heroes, Thomas Jefferson who said (amongst other great things), âIf once the people become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, Judges and Governors, shall all become wolves. It seems to be the law of our general nature, in spite of individual exceptions.â
Baaaa!
... preceded immediately by the line "Do not be too severe upon their errors, but reclaim them by enlightening them."
Also seemed somewhat apropos.
