[lbo-talk] Uncle Milton...

[Mike Ballard]

"You, therefore, who wish to remain free, either instantly be wise, or, 
as soon as possible, cease to be fools; if you think slavery an 
intolerable evil, learn obedience to reason and the government of yourselves; and
finally bid adieu to your dissensions, your jealousies, your 
superstitions, your outrages, your rapine, and your lusts. Unless you will spare no 
pains to effect this, you must be judged unfit, both by God and mankind, to 
be entrusted with the possession of liberty and the administration of the
government, but will rather, like a nation in a state of pupillage want 
some active and courageous guardian to undertake the management of your 
affairs."
John Milton - The second defence of the People of England, 1654
