William Blackstone

Adam Smith
The scientific imagination always restrains itself within the limits of probability.
Thomas Huxley
The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference - they deserve a place of honor with all that's good.
George Washington

Joseph de Maistre
