Presidential Oath

    Under a Presidential government, a nation has, except at the electing moment, no influence; it has not the ballot-box before it; its virtue is gone, and it must wait till its instant of despotism again returns.

    The oath of a lover is no stronger than the word of a
    tapster; they are both the confirmer of false reckonings.
