The contest is not between Us and Them, but between Good and Evil, and if those who would fight Evil adopt the ways of Evil, Evil wins.

Let our countrymen know that the people alone can protect us against these evils of misgovernment.

We are overdone with banking institutions, which have banished the precious metals, and substituted a more fluctuating and unsafe medium... These have withdrawn capital from useful improvements and employments to nourish idleness... These are evils more easily to be deplored than remedied.

It is a happy circumstance in human affairs that evils which are not cured in one way will cure themselves in some other.
