"Democrats and Republicans alike support our military personnel."
"For us democracy is a question of human dignity. And human dignity is political freedom."
"Another tendency, which is extremely natural to democratic nations and extremely dangerous, is that which leads them to despise and undervalue the rights of private persons. The attachment which men feel to a right, and the respect which they display for it, is generally proportioned to its importance, or to the length of time during which they have enjoyed it.
