Quote of the Day: 24 February 2018


"It is a misfortune, inseparable from human affairs, that public measures are rarely investigated with that spirit of moderation, which is essential to a just estimate of their real tendency to advance, or obstruct, the public good; and that this spirit is more apt to be diminished than promoted, by those occasions which require an unnusual exercise of it." -James Madison, The Federalist No. 37
