Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men.Quote by Lord Acton about man
Property is not the sacred right. When a rich man becomes poor it is a misfortune, it is not a moral evil. When a poor man becomes destitute, it is a moral evil, teeming with consequences and injurious to society and morality.Quote by Lord Acton about man
The man who prefers his country before any other duty shows the same spirit as the man who surrenders every right to the state. They both deny that right is superior to authority.Quote by Lord Acton about man
It is easier to find people fit to govern themselves than people to govern others. Every man is the best, the most responsible, judge of his own advantage.Quote by Lord Acton about man
