The voice of the people has been said to be the voice of God; and, however generally this maxim has been quoted and believed, it is not true to fact. The people are turbulent and changing, they seldom judge or determine right.

  • -- Alexander Hamilton 亚历山大·汉密尔顿

人民的声音据说是上帝的声音;而且,无论这句格言被引用和相信的程度有多普遍,它都不符合事实。人民是动荡多变的,他们很少判断或决定正确的。
