“If Men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and the next place, oblige it to control itself.”
― James Madison

“No one can steal your peace of mind unless you let them.”

“Understanding is a three edged sword: your side, their side, and the truth.”

― J. Michael Straczynski
