Daily Quote 6/8/2007

Friday, June 8, 2007.
"But ambitious encroachments of the federal government, on the
authority of the State governments, would not excite the opposition
of a single State, or of a few States only. They would be signals
of general alarm... But what degree of madness could ever drive
the federal government to such an extremity."

--James Madison (Federalist No. 46, 29 January 1788); Reference: The Federalist.
