Happy Birthday, Tocqueville

Chassériau, Alexis de Tocqueville, 1850


If men are to remain civilized, or to become so, the art of associating together must grow and improve in the same ratio in which the equality of conditions is increased.

Alexis de Tocqueville, born on this day in 1805, from Democracy in America, Volume II
