The admiration of power in others is as common to man as the love of it in himself; the one makes him a tyrant, the other a slave.
We are all of us, more or less, the slaves of opinion.
The slaves of power mind the cause they have to serve, because their own interest is concerned; but the friends of liberty always sacrifice their cause, which is only the cause of humanity, to their own spleen, vanity, and self-opinion.
Liberty is the only true riches: of all the rest we are at once the masters and the slaves.
