Usurpers always bring about or select troublous times to get passed, under cover of the public terror, destructive laws, which the people would never adopt in cold blood. The moment chosen is one of the surest means of distinguishing the work of the legislator from that of the tyrant.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Alexander Hamilton

Traitors who prevail are patriots usurpers who succeed are divine emperors.

John Adams
