ALGERNON SIDNEY (SYDNEY) English politician and patriot (1622 - 1683) I will believe in the right of one man to govern a nation despotically when I find a man born into the world with boots and spurs, and a nation born with saddles on their backs.       - [Despotism] If vice and corruption prevail, liberty cannot subsist; but if virtue have the advantage, arbitrary power cannot be established.       - [Liberty] Liars ought to have good memories.       - [Lying] Where liberty is, there is my country.       - Algernon, his motto [Mottoes : Patriotism] God helps those who help themselves.       - Discourse Concerning Government          (ch. II, pt. XXIII) [God : Help : Proverbs] Men lived like fishes; the great ones devoured the small.       - Discourses on Government (ch. II, sec. 18)         [Fish : Society] This shows that liars ought to have good memories.       - Discourses on Government (ch. II, sec. XV)         [Lying] But it is not necessary to light a candle to the sun.       - Discourses on Government          (ch. II, sec. XXIII) [Light] The GIGA name and the GIGA logo are trademarks registered in the United States Patent and Trademark Office. GIGA-USA and GIGA-USA.COM are servicemarks of the domain owner.
