Federalist # 1: History will teach us that the former has been found a much more certain road to the introduction of despotism than the latter, and that of those men who have overturned the liberties of republics, the greatest number have begun their career by paying an obsequious court to the people; commencing demagogues, and ending tyrants
Nuremberg Trial, the Nurnberg Case:
They destroyed all judicial remedies for the citizen and all protections against terrorism. The record discloses the early symptoms of dictatorship and shows that it is only in its incipient stages that it can be brought under control. … They struck down freedom of speech and press and other freedoms which pass as ordinary civil rights with us so thoroughly that not even its highest officers dared to warn the people or the Fuhrer that they were taking the road to destruction. The Nurnberg trial has put that handwriting on the wall for the oppressors as well as the oppressed to read.
