The Importance of the Constitution in a Democracy“In democracies of the more extreme type there has arisen a false idea of freedom which is contradictory to the true interests of the state. For two principles are characteristic of democracy, the government of the majority and freedom. Men think that what is just is equal; and that equality is the supremacy of the popular will; and that freedom means the doing what a man likes. In such democracies everyone lives as he pleases . . . But this is all wrong; men should not think it slavery to live according to the rule of the constitution; for it is their salvation.”
Aristotle
