    “The English people believes itself to be free; it is gravely mistaken; it is free only during election of members of parliament; as soon as the members are elected, the people is enslaved; it is nothing. In the brief moment of its freedom, the English people makes such a use of that freedom that it deserves to lose it.”
    —Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)

    “I believe that the members of my family must be as free from suspicion as from actual crime.”
    —Julius Caesar [Gaius Julius Caesar] (100–44 B.C.)

    “For let our finger ache, and it endues
    Our other healthful members even to a sense
    Of pain.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “What is the historical function of Parliament in this country? It is to prevent the Government from governing.”
