Some things transcends time! What de Tocqueville wrote is still applicable today, and the principles that guided our founders are still as valuable they ever were, only they have been cheapened by various attacks of hubris.

Wisdom and money are two different things, but inflation threatens them both.

Principles do not lose their validity because we invent some excuse for ignoring them. They are in our custody, and we can dissipate them if we don’t recognize how privileged we are for having inherited them.
