Sir, I agree to this Constitution with all its faults, if they are such, because I think a general Government necessary for us, and there is no form of
Government but what may be a blessing to the people if well administered, and believe farther that this is likely to be well administered for a course of years, and can only end in Despotism, as other forms have done before it, when the people shall become so corrupted as to need despotic Government, being incapable of any other. I doubt too whether any to have the advantage other Convention we can obtain, may be able to make a better Constitution. For when you assemble a number of men to have their joint wisdom, you inevitably assemble with those men, all their prejudices, their passions, their errors of opinion, their local interests, and their selfish views. From such an assembly can a perfect production be expected? It therefore astonishes me, Sir, to find this system approaching so near to perfection as it does; and I think it will astonish our enemies Thus I consent, Sir, to this Constitution because expect host The inanay no better, and because I am not sure, that it is not the best. The opinions I have had of its errors, I sacrifice to the public good. I have never whispered a syllable of them abroad. Within these walls they were born, and here they shall die. If every one of us in returning to our Constituents were to report the objections he has had to it, and endeavor to gain partisans in support of them, we might prevent its being generally received, and thereby lose all the salutary effects and great advantages resulting naturally in our favor among foreign Nations as well as among ourselves, from our real or apparent unanimity. Much of the strength and efficiency of any Government in procuring and securing happiness to the people, depends, on opinion, on the general opinion of the goodness of the Government, as well as of the wisdom and integrity

Read the excerpt titled "Dogs vs Cats" by Sam Brown.
Canines are vastly superior to their feline counterparts.
Dogs have instincts ingrained in them to protect their
owners. Unlike cats, canines become attached to their
owners and show them affection Researchers found
that felines have no attachments to their owners and
are inherently independent creatures. Furthermore,
