Power without responsibility — real and efficient responsibility —
is power without obligation — real and efficient obligation
Power in so far as it is clear of obligation is property:
power in so far as it is coupled and charged with
obligation is a trust.
Obligation In every part of the field of action and in every
shape occasion is obligation is in every shape a burthen, from which by the principle of self-preservation,
by regard for his own case
by personal interest
in that shape in which
it may be toward the interest
of the people, every
man in proportion as
he feels himself pressed
by it feels himself
urged and excited to
endeavour to strike relieve
himself off.
8 or 1
Power clear of obligation
is private property:
power charged with
obligation is trust.
Power without responsibility
and without
obligation.
Obligation is a burthen
every part of which
every man is by
self preservation from
by regard
to his own case, continually
prompted to endeavour
to throw off.
So happily have matters been managed so
admirably has in the managing hands of the managers has
public power been adjusted to the purposes of personal
convenience, — the power which a man possesses is in the engagement of by
the possession property of a box at the Opera is not less part
from obligation than the power which he is in the put into
engagement of by the possession of a seat in the House
of Commons.
Power without obligation
is the portion of the Emperor
of Morocco and not
to speak of the Emperor of France
Power without obligation
is the portion of the
Members of the House of
Commons, not to speak
of the Member of the House
of Lords.
The power of the Emperor
is a whole: the power
of the Member is but
a part of a
whole: in this lies all
the difference.
