Jun. 3rd, 2010 01:11 pmA good line from 1776 that I shall endeavour to remember.
"Don't forget that most men with nothing would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich than face the reality of being poor. "
Another good one (a quote from Edmund Burke), "a representative owes the People not only his industry, but his judgment, and he betrays them if he sacrifices it to their opinion."
(What Burke said, precisely, was "Your Representative owes you, not his industry only, but his judgement; and he betrays, instead of serving you, if he sacrifices it to your opinion.")
