There is no nation so powerful, as the one that obeys its laws not from principals of fear or reason, but from passion.

We should weep for men at their birth, not at their death.
Happy the people whose annals are tiresome.
There is no greater tyranny than that which is perpetrated under the shield of the law and in the name of justice.
