“Families and societies are small and large versions of one another. Both are made up of people who have to work together, whose destinies are tied up with one another.

“What havoc, said I to myself, would these manners make in America! Our governors, our judges, our senators or representatives, and even our ministers, would be appointed by harlots, for money; and their judgments, decrees, and decisions, be sold to repay themselves, or, perhaps, to procure the smiles of profligate females.”
