Montana Sedition Act

Famous quotes containing the words sedition and/or act:

    It is dangerous to tell the people that the laws are unjust; for they obey them only because they think them just. Therefore it is necessary to tell them at the same time that they must obey them because they are laws, just as they must obey superiors, not because they are just, but because they are superiors. In this way all sedition is prevented.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    To speak or do anything that shall concern mankind, one must speak and act as if well, or from that grain of health which he has left.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
