"Although all men are born free, and all nations might be so, yet too true it is, that slavery has been the general lot of the human race. Ignorant — they have been cheated; asleep — they have been surprized; divided — the yoke has been forced upon them. But what is the lesson? That because the people may betray themselves, they ought to give themselves up, blindfold, to those who have an interest in betraying them?

But mysteries belong to religion, not to government; to the ways of the Almighty, not to the works of man." James Madison 'Who Are the Best Keepers of the People's Liberties'
