Politics
All political power is a trust.
Charles James Fox (1788).
Politics
A weapon that comes down as still
As snowflakes fall upon the sod;

As lightning does the will of God;
And from its force, nor doors nor locks
Can shield you; 'tis the ballot-box.
John Pierpont, A Word from a Petitioner.

Hawkins, J., Ex parte Castioni (1890), 60 L. J. Rep. (N. S.) Mag. Cas. 33.
