I love the quote. Thank You! My pleasure!

Here's another one of my favorites. Not from the Founders, exactly, but it is from one of the treatise they often quoted:

Of the Simplicity of Criminal Laws in different Governments
In republican governments, men are all equal; equal they are also in despotic governments:
in the former, because they are everything; in the latter, because they are nothing.

THE SPIRIT OF LAWS Book VI By Charles de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu
