The representatives of the people, in a popular assembly, seem sometimes to fancy that they are the people themselves, and betray strong symptoms of impatience and disgust at the least sign of opposition from any other quarter; as if the exercise of its rights, by either the executive or judiciary, were a breach of their privilege and an outrage to their dignity.

The Representatives Of The People, In A

More From Alexander Hamilton

There are two main human sins from which all the others derive: impatience and indolence. it was because of impatience that they were expelled from paradise; it is because of indolence that they do not return. yet perhaps there is only one major sin: impatience. because of impatience they were expelled, because of impatience they do not return.
Two Paradise Return
It equally proves, that though individual oppression may now and then proceed from the courts of justice, the general liberty of the people can never be endangered from that quarter; i mean so long as the judiciary remains truly distinct from both the legislature and the executive. for i agree, that "there is no liberty, if the power of judging be not separated from the legislative and executive powers." and it proves, in the last place, that as liberty can have nothing to fear from the judiciary alone, but would have every thing to fear from its union with either of the other departments.
Mean Judging Long
There are two cardinal human sins out of which all others derive, deviate, and dissipate: impatience and lassitude (or perhaps nonchalance). on account of impatience they are driven out of paradise; on account of lassitude or nonchalance they do not return. perhaps, however, only one main sense of sin is given: impatience. on account of impatience they are driven out, on account of impatience they do not turn back.
Two Nonchalance Paradise
We established however some, although not all its [self-government] important principles . the constitutions of most of our states assert, that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves, in all cases to which they think themselves competent, (as in electing their functionaries executive and legislative, and deciding by a jury of themselves, in all judiciary cases in which any fact is involved,) or they may act by representatives, freely and equally chosen; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.
Exercise Thinking Government
The constitution has divided the powers of government into three branches, legislative, executive and judiciary, lodging each with a distinct magistracy. the legislative it has given completely to the senate and house of representatives. it has declared that the executive powers shall be vested in the president, submitting special articles of it to a negative by the senate, and it has vested the judiciary power in the courts of justice, with certain exceptions also in favor of the senate.
Government Justice House
What is to be the consequence, in case the congress shall misconstrue this part [the necessary and proper clause] of the constitution and exercise powers not warranted by its true meaning, i answer the same as if they should misconstrue or enlarge any other power vested in them . . . the success of the usurpation will depend on the executive and judiciary departments, which are to expound and give effect to the legislative acts; and in a last resort a remedy must be obtained from the people, who can by the elections of more faithful representatives, annul the acts of the usurpers.

Norms appearing in the form of law entitle actors to exercise their rights or liberties. however, one cannot determine which of these laws are legitimate simply by looking at the form of individual rights. only by bringing in the discourse principle can one show that each person is owed a right to the greatest possible measure of equal liberties that are mutually compatible.
