Aristotle: Mere Guardians and Servants of the Law

Daily Dabble in the Classics, Aristotle

Order is law, and it is more proper that law should govern, than any one of the citizens: upon the same principle, if it is advantageous to place the supreme power in some particular persons, they should be appointed to be only guardians, and the servants of the laws.
