"Republics are created by the virtue, public spirit, and
intelligence of the citizens. They fall, when the wise are banished from
the public councils, because they dare to be honest, and the profligate
are rewarded, because they flatter the people, in order to betray
them." --Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution, 1833
