More from Edmund Burke
"The effect of liberty to individuals is, that they may do what they please: we ought to see what it will please them to do, before we risk congratulations."
"The love of lucre, and not the love of liberty, is the motive of their conduct."
"The individual is foolish; the multitude, for the moment, is foolish, when they act without deliberation; but the species is wise, and, when time is given to it, as a species, it always acts right."
"A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds."
"They who are in love with practice without theory are like the sailor who boards ship without rudder and compass and never knows where he may cast."
