“Those who sanctioned rebellious mobs that threatened to overthrow the government conflated poor administration with government itself. Similarly, those who submitted timidly to tyrannical ministers showed only fear, not respect.” - Jane Calvert, Penman of the Founding: A Biography of John Dickinson
