We’re at maybe 1% of what is possible. Despite the faster change, we’re still moving slow relative to the opportunities we have.

In war, too, the discretionary power of the executive is extended. Its influence in dealing out offices, honors and emoluments is multiplied; and all the meaning of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force of the people.

No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.
