“If any authority should be able to justify itself, if any authority should be able to answer the question "by what right?" with something more than the circular assertion of its own power, it is the authority that claims to be perfectly rational, perfectly just, and the source of all goodness. And yet, it is precisely this authority that most often answers the question 'Why?' with 'Because I AM.”
