"Morality is intimately related to a nation's government, for as James
Madison wrote, "To suppose that any form of government will secure liberty or
happiness without any virtue in the people is a chimerical idea." Morality refers to
conduct that is proper between members of society. Respect for the equal
rights of every citizen becomes the foundation of morality and justice in a free
society. Rightful government necessarily reflects this proper relationship in
its policies and in its dealings with its own citizens and with other nations."

-Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)
