"It is not enough for a people to gain its liberty. It must secure it. It must not intrust it to the Keeping, or hold it at the pleasure, of any one man. The Keystone of the Royal Arch of the Temple of Liberty is a fundamental law, charter, or constitution; the expression of the fixed habits of thought of the people, embodied in a written instrument, or the result of the slow accretions and the consolidation of centuries; the same in war as in peace; that cannot be hastily changed, nor be violated with impunity, but is sacred, like the Ark of the Covenant of God, which none could touch and live".
