Quote by Daniel Webster (1782-1852)

• There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.

• Failure is more frequently from want of energy than want of capital.

• A country cannot subsist well without liberty, nor liberty without virtue.

• God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it.

• An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, the power to destroy.

• Liberty exists in proportion to wholesome restraint.
