Paths
From Ron Chernow’s beyond excellent biography of Alexander Hamilton:

"Hamilton was already interested in the checks and balances that enabled a government to tread a middle path between despotism and anarchy."

Made me think of how the Bush administration was neck deep in both despotism AND anarchy. Pretty impressive, when you think about the ideals this country was founded upon. It can’t be said enough – Worst. President. Ever.
