Saul Bellow Quotes
Because I have become such a solitary, and not in the Aristotelian sense: not a beast, not a god.

Government has three primary functions. It should provide for military defense of the nation. It should enforce contracts between individuals. It should protect citizens from crimes against themselves or their property.
