"There is no excuse for human rights abuse, whether in the name of security or in the name of liberation."

A fondness for power is implanted in most men, and it is natural to abuse it when acquired. This maxim, drawn from the experience of all ages, makes it the height of folly to intrust any set of men with power which is not under every possible control; perpetual strides are made after more as long as there is any part withheld.

— Alexander Hamilton
