Quote examples
Thomas Jefferson
American President
I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them but to inform their discretion.

Quote examples
Gerald R. Ford
American President
