William Penn; 1st governor of Pennsylvania. 
" Governments, like clocks, go from motion men give them . . .Wherefore governments rather depend upon men, than men upon governments. Let men be good and the government cannot be bad . . . But if men be bad, the government will never be good. 
I know some say, "Let us have good laws, and no matter for the men that execute them. " But let them consider that though good laws do well, good men do better; for good laws may lack good men. . . but good men will never lack good laws, nor allow bad ones."
Proverbs 29:2,
"When the righteous rule, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan."
