Nicholas Schliemann was familiar with all the universe, and with man as a small part of it. He understood human institutions, and blew them about like soap bubbles.

The purpose of government was the guarding of property-rights, the perpetuation of ancient force and modern fraud.
Royce's false personal accusation of "extravagant pretensions"?
