Government

1. "When the minds of the people in general are viciously disposed and unprincipled, and their conduct disorderly, a free government, will be attended with greater confusions and evils more horrid than the wild, uncultivated state of nature. It can only be happy when the public principle and opinions are properly directed and their manners regulated. This is an influence beyond the reach of laws and punishments and can be claimed only by relgion and education" - United States Founding Father, Signer of the Constitution, Member United States House of Representatives - Bill of Rights, Abraham Baldwin, "Biographical Sketches of the Delegates from Georgia to the Continental Congress", Charles C. Jones, (Boston and New York: Houghton, Mifflin and Company, 1891), pp. 6-7
