Letters from an Ohio Farmer
"Think what a people we must already have been, to be determined and able to do such a thing. When the American revolutionaries and founders looked back on the history of popular governments in the world (and they were avid students of that history), they beheld scene upon scene of turbulence and instability, of violent agitation between the extremes of anarchy and tyranny. So terrible was the picture, as Publius said, that it gave advocates of despotism an argument against free government altogether."
