To quote Henry David Thoreau:
Quote:
|
I heartily accept the motto, "That government is best which governs least"; and I should like to see it acted up to more rapidly and systematically. Carried out, it finally amounts to this, which also I believe — "That government is best which governs not at all"; and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which the will have.

This I believe. So the constitution would be "Do what thou wilt".
The above quote comes from the text
"
On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" originally called "Resistance to Civil Government" from 1849. It is very interesting to read, please do so.
