James Madison: Federalist 14

( 1787 ) Commentary by Robert R. Montgomery, M.A.

“Hearken not to the unnatural voice which tells you that the people of America, knit together as they are by so many cords of affection, can no longer live together as members of the same family; can no longer continue the mutual guardians of their mutual happiness; can no longer be fellow citizens of one great, respectable, and flourishing empire.” - Paragraph 12

James Madison (Library of Congress)
