And thank you Mr. James Madison—Father of the Constitution.
"The rights of man as
the foundation of just Government had been long understood; but the
superstructures projected had been sadly defective."
"[The
Constitution of the United States] was not, like the fable Goddess of Wisdom,
the offspring of a single brain. It
ought to be regarded as the work of many heads and many hands."
"The happy Union of
these States is a wonder; their Constitution a miracle; their example the hope
of Liberty throughout the world. Woe to
the ambition that would meditate the destruction of either!"
