Quotes by Philip Hamburger (?)

“And already here the danger should be evident—that government has returned to the era before constitutions, when kings or executives ruled not through law but outside it. A return to a preconstitutional era of prerogative power may not seem worrisome, for like its predecessor, administrative power often seems benign. The peril of administrative power, however, lies not in its potential for good, but in its potential for danger by unraveling government through law.”
― Philip Hamburger, Is Administrative Law Unlawful?

“Gary Lawson observes: “The modern administrative state is not merely unconstitutional; it is anti-constitutional. The Constitution was designed specifically to prevent the emergence of the kinds of institutions that characterize the modern administrative state.”2 These brief observations are very apt but are only laconic”

“In short, it is remarkably difficult to find instances in nineteenth-century federal law in which the executive offered relief to anyone in the rest of the public from the legal duties that directly bound them. Toward the end of the century, there were hints of changing views, but in an era in which the English dispensing power, and the constitutional rejection of it, were still understood, it is no surprise that Congress apparently did not authorize any such power.”
