Why, the Government is merely a servant -- merely a temporary servant; it cannot be its prerogative to determine what is right and what is wrong, and decide who is a patriot and who isn't. Its function is to obey orders, not originate them.” ~ Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835-1910) American author and humorist
