THE ONLY FOUNDATION OF A FREE CONSTITUTION IS PURE VIRTUE, AND IF THIS CANNOT BE INSPIRED INTO OUR PEOPLE. THEY MAY CHANGE THEIR RULES, AND THE FORM OF GOVERNMENT, BUT THEY WILL NOT OBTAIN A LASTING LIBERTY A CONSTITUTION OF GOVERNMENT ONCE CHANGED FROM FREEDOM, CAN NEVER BE RESTORED. LIBERTY ONCE LOST IS LOST FOREVER.
JOHN ADAMS
