Our constitution does not copy the laws of neighbouring
states; we are rather a pattern to others than imitators
ourselves. Its administration favours the many instead of
the few; this is why it is called a democracy. If we look to
the laws, they afford equal justice to all in their private
differences; if no social standing, advancement in public
life falls to reputation for capacity, class considerations
not being allowed to interfere with merit; nor again does
poverty bar the way, if a man is able to serve the state, he
is not hindered by the obscurity of his condition. The
freedom which we enjoy in our government extends also
to our ordinary life. There, far from exercising a jealous
surveillance over each other, we do not feel called upon to
be angry with our neighbour for doing what he likes, or
even to indulge in those injurious looks which cannot fail
to be offensive, although they inflict no positive penalty.
But all this ease in our private relations does not make us
lawless as citizens.
