he knows, know more than he does." Feb. 4, 1923

I'll add:

"That government is best which governs least." "The people cannot delegate to government the power to do anything which would be unlawful for them to do themselves." "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

Your second quote sounds like it came straight from the great French libertarian, Fredric Bastiat, in his magnificent book, *The Law.* Circa 1850, I believe. If your quote is not from him but you think it is good you should pick up a copy. But I warn you it will lead you to addictively wanting to read everything he wrote.

If you had a brain in your head you could have followed the thread. The quote is from Will Rogers, marone.
