The Constitution. . . illustrates the complexity of the American system: that it serves the interests of a wealthy elite, but also does enough for small property owners, for middle-income mechanics and farmers, to build a broad base of support.

They enable the elite to keep control with a minimum of coercion, a maximum of law--all made palatable by the fanfare of patriotism and unity.

Gottfried Leibniz

These principles have given me a way of explaining naturally the union or rather the mutual agreement [conformité] of the soul and the organic body.
