"Whenever a single definite object is made the supreme end of the State, be it the advantage of a class, the safety of the power of the country, the greatest happiness of the greatest number, or the support of any speculative idea, the State becomes for the time inevitably absolute." | Quote by: | Lord Acton [John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton] (1834-1902), First Baron Acton of Aldenham |
