Irresponsible power is inconsistent with liberty, and must corrupt those who exercise it.
Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action.
The hare-brained chatter of irresponsible frivolity.
God gave us the gift of life. It is the most precious gift ever. To be unarmed is to be helpless to protect that gift; that is outright irresponsible.
