除了人民本身之外，我不知道社会最终权力的安全存放处。如果我们认为他们不够开明，无法以健康的判断力行使自己的控制权，那么补救措施不是剥夺他们的控制权，而是通过教育来告知他们的判断力。这才是对滥用宪法权力的真正纠正。
(I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves ; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.)
