My favourite is:: "Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become more corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.". A virtuous people will not vote for someone because of the free stuff they offer. Sadly too many voters are electing scoundrels for this reason. Central Banks not regular banks are the problem. They are unelected regulators with the inside scoop on what is coming next. There are no checks and balances between deficit spending and transparent printed fiat.
He is also known to sneak in a fart joke from time to time, because of that he wasn't allowed to help write the declaration of independence. Lol
And that is why Ben is my favorite founder. Lol Plato and Aristotle were both skeptical about the virtues of unlimited individual liberty, warning of a cycle in which an excess of liberty (licentiousness) in a democracy causes a reaction that would end in the absence of liberty (tyranny) and the return of an oligarchy. “The excess of liberty, whether in states or individuals, seems only to pass into excess of slavery,” Plato argued in The Republic, “and so tyranny naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme form of liberty.” Plato and Aristotle believed not so much in individual liberty (“the liberty of the moderns”), but more in the self-government of the polity (“the liberty of the ancients”), which was why they viewed Spartan authoritarianism as a “golden mean” between Athenian egalitarianism and Persian totalitarianism.
