More From James Russell Lowell

Republics demanded virtue. monarchies could rely on coercion and "dazzling splendor" to suppress self-interest or factions; republics relied on the goodness of the people to put aside private interest for public good. the imperatives of virtue attached all sorts of desiderata to the republican citizen: simplicity, frugality, sobriety, simple manners, christian benevolence, duty to the polity. republics called on other virtues--spiritedness, courage--to protect the polity from external threats. tyrants kept standing armies; republics relied on free yeomen, defending their own land.

Destiny ... a word which means more than we can find any definitions for. it is a word which can have no meaning in a mechanical universe: if that which is wound up must run down, what destiny is there in that? destiny is not necessitarianism, and it is not caprice: it is something essentially meaningful. each man has his destiny, though some men are undoubtedly "men of destiny" in a sense in which most men are not.

Kings play at war unfairly with republics; they can only lose some earth, and some creatures they value as little, while republics lose in every soldier a part of themselves.

Stephen miller did one thing: he simply recited common sense. this is a common sense immigration bill. if there was ever a piece of common sense legislation, this is it. in this case, what stephen miller did was nothing more than common sense, and yet it was interpreted - it went right over their heads, the white house press corps, not just jim acosta and glenn thrush. it went over all of their heads because they didn't understand what he was talking about, either because of the fog of hatred they have for donald trump and his administration, or they are just ignorant.

There is, indeed a more mitigated scepticism or academical philosophy, which may be both durable and useful, and which may, in part, be the result of this pyrrhonism, or excessive scepticism, when its undistinguished doubts are corrected by common sense and reflection.
