"Of all the enemies to public liberty, war is, perhaps, the most
to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every
other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and
taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments
for bringing the many under the domination of the few.... No nation
could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare."
James
Madison, 1795 |
