Hamilton

Alex Hamilton once said, (paraphrased) that the greatest man who ever lived was Julius Caesar.  In spite of this mortifying sentiment, he went on to write many of the Federalist Papers which still stand as perhaps the best single apology for the Constitution of the United States of America.  Below are some quotes attributed to him.  

Please note, I found the following quotes on the internet.  Their accuracy in diction, grammar and attribution are far from guaranteed.

"It's not tyranny we desire; it's a just, limited, federal government."

"There is a certain enthusiasm in liberty, that makes human nature rise above itself, in acts of bravery and heroism."

"I think the first duty of society is justice."
