Top 5 quotes from Daniel Webster
"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."
"It is my living sentiment, and by the blessing of God it shall be my dying sentiment, independence now and independence forever."
"An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, the power to destroy."
"Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government."
"The world is governed more by appearances than realities, so that it is fully as necessary to seem to know something as to know it."
Top 5 quotes from Justice
"Justice cannot be for one side alone, but must be for both."
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
"Mankind censure injustice fearing that they may be the victims of it, and not because they shrink from committing it."
"True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice."
"That the innocent, though they may have some connexion or dependency upon the guilty (which, perhaps, they themselves cannot help), should not, upon that account, suffer or be punished for the guilty, is one of the plainest and most obvious rules of justice."
