Fruits are always of the same nature with the seeds and roots from which they come, and trees are known by the fruits they bear: as a man begets a man, and a beast a beast, that society of men which constitutes a government upon the foundation of justice, virtue, and the common good, will always have men to promote those ends; and that which intends the advancement of one man’s desire and vanity, will abound in those that will foment them Picture Quote #1

Government cannot do everything, so we need to first decide what government ought to be doing, then figure out what it’s capable of doing, and then follow the jobs we choose to completion Picture Quote #1
