"A state too expensive in itself, or by virtue of its dependencies,
ultimately falls into decay; its free government is transformed into a
tyranny; it disregards the principles which it should preserve, and
finally degenerates into despotism. The distinguishing characteristic of
small republics is stability: the character of large republics is
mutability. "
Simon Bolivar
“An ignorant people is the blind instrument of its own destruction.”
Simon Bolivar
"A people that loves freedom will in the end be free."
