6597. PEOPLE, Imposing upon.—
As
little [as to shut up the press] is it necessary
to impose on the people's senses, or dazzle
their minds by pomp, splendor, or forms.
Instead of this artificial, how much surer is
that real respect, which results from the use
of their reason, and the habit of bringing
everything to the test of common sense.—
To Judge Tyler. Washington ed. iv, 548.
