No power on earth is greater than a mind and soul reawakened. Our Constitution begins 'we the people', not 'us the government'.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Power's not what the Constitution was about.
Except our own thoughts, there is nothing absolutely in our power.
There is no power above people power.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak.
But there is a higher law than the Constitution, which regulates our authority over the domain, and devotes it to the same noble purposes.
Our power is not so much in us as through us.
Power is not just political. It can be cultural; it can be spiritual.
Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country.
The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.
