"Hold on, my friends,

to the Constitution and

to the Republic for which it stands.

Miracles do not cluster

and what has happened once in 6,000 years,

may not happen again.

Hold on to the Constitution,

for if the American Constitution should fail,

there will be anarchy throughout the world."

-- Daniel Webster

(1782-1852), US Senator

1851

"The American Constitution,

one of the few modern political

documents drawn up by men

who were forced by the sternest

circumstances to think out

what they really had to face,

instead of chopping logic

in a university classroom."

-- George Bernard Shaw

(1856-1950) Irish comic dramatist

"On the distinctive principles of the Government ...
