“To form a truly free constitution, that's to say, truly just and wise, the first point, the main point, the capital point, is that all the laws be agreed on by the people, after considered reflection, and especially having taken time to see what's at stake.” PeopleFirstsFormLawTakenWiseReflectionConstitutionStakes Author:Jean-Paul Marat
“What astonishing changes a few years are capable of producing! I am told that even respectable characters speak of a monarchical form of government without horror. From thinking proceeds speaking, thence to acting is often but a single step. But how irrevocable and tremendous! What a triumph for the advocates of despotism to find that we are incapable of governing ourselves, and that systems founded on the basis of equal liberty are merely ideal and falacious! Would to God that wise measures may be taken in time to avert the consequences we have but too much reason to apprehend.” ThinkingYearsMayReasonCharacterGovernmentFormSpeakActingLibertyStepsTakenToo MuchWiseHorrorEqualCapableConsequenceIdealsBasesTriumphIncapableAstonishingRespectableGoverningDespotismForms Of GovernmentIrrevocableAvertSingle Step Author:George Washington
“Special care should be taken of the health of the inhabitants, which will depend chiefly on the healthiness of the locality and of the quarter to which they are exposed, and secondly on the use of pure water; this latter point is by no means a secondary consideration. For the elements which we use the most and oftenest for the support of the body contribute most to health, and among those are water and air. Wherefore, in all wise states, if there is want of pure water, and the supply is not all equally good, the drinking water ought to be separated from that which is used for other purposes.” IfsWantShouldMeanStatesUseBodyCareUsedPurposeWaterEducationSupportTakenWiseAirSpecialDependsOughtPureElementsDrinkingConsiderationLatterExposedQuartersDrinking WaterLocalityPure Water Author:Aristotle

“I do not agree that the dog in a manger has the final right to the manger even though he may have lain there for a very long time. I do not admit that right. I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place.” PeopleWayMayLongHas BeensDoneFactsAmericaBlackRaceTakenWiseDogHigherLong TimeRedStrongerAgreeFinalsInstanceGradesAustraliaBlack PeopleWorldly Author:Winston Churchill
