Liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among the people, who have... a right, an indisputable, unalienable, indefeasible, divine right to that most dreaded and envied kind of knowledge, I mean the characters and conduct of their rulers.

Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights.

Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their death.

When the government fears the people there is liberty; when the people fear the government there is tyranny.

Now I’m old enough to remember when the only experience you ever seemed to have with the Federal Government was that now and then you went down to the post office and bought a stamp. They were two cents each. For twice a day delivery. Now they are fifteen cents for once a day delivery to the wrong address. My friend Dewey Bartlett, the Senator from Oklahoma, says that the last two cents on the price is for storage. And he suggested that we could improve the postal service if we would start paying the postal employees by mail. And yet how much are we to blame? Beginning with the great traumatic experience of the depression, panic in the thirties, we ourselves have fallen into the habit of turning to the government more and more for answers the government has neither the ability nor the right to give. But government delights in trying to provide those answers because government, just any government, as an institution tends to grow.
