    The Soul rules over matter. Matter may pass away like a mote in the sunbeam, may be absorbed into the immensity of God, as a mist is absorbed into the heat of the Sun—but the soul is the kingdom of God, the abode of love, of truth, of virtue.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Man’s capacity for justice makes democracy possible, but man’s inclination to injustice makes democracy necessary.
