"Your representative owes you, not his industry only, but his judgment; and he betrays, instead of serving you, if he sacrifices it to your opinion." - Sir Edmund Burke https://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/v1ch13s7.html
"Commitment, Abby, commitment! There are only two creatures of value on the face of this earth: those with a commitment, and those who require the commitment of others." - John Adams, 1776
