Quote of the Day

I can normally count of Maggie Thurber of "Thurber's Thoughts" to get quotations of excellence up before I ever get the chance. For some reason (her busy schedule these days, no doubt), she has gifted me that privilege today. I would therefore like to share this little tidbit with you from one of our Founding Fathers.


"The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny."

- James Madison
