contentment, and prosperity."
George Washington: "If in the opinion of the People, the distribution or
modification of the Constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be
corrected by an amendment in the way in which the Constitution designates.
But let there be no change by usurpation."
William Blackstone: "Laws themselves, whether made with or without our

indifference, without any good end in view, are laws destructive of liberty...."
