Wise and Good
Day 363
"As good government is an empire of laws, how shall your laws be made? In
a large society, inhabiting an extensive country, it is impossible that
the whole should assemble to make laws. The first necessary step, then,
is to depute power from the many to a few of the most wise and good."
~John Adams~
1776 'Thoughts on Government'
