[Many Founding Fathers wrote extensively on the subject. Thomas Jefferson said,] What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. ... A free people ought to be armed.

[As the issue was being debated, George Washington wrote to Lafayette in Paris with the observation that] It appears to me, then, little short of a miracle, that the delegates from so many different states (which states you know are also different from each other in their manners, circumstances and prejudices) should unite in forming a system of national government, so little liable to well founded objections.. ...

Until lions have their historians, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the hunters.

[Katrina has prompted Bush to make vaulting promises.] As we clear away the debris of a hurricane, let us also clear away the legacy of inequality, ... what a lot of Americans saw was ... some poverty that they had never imagined before, and we need to address that.
