It does not require great learning to be a Christian and be convinced of the truth of the Bible. It requires only an honest heart and a willingness to obey God.
Albert Barnes

It is a base thing for a man among the people not to obey those in command. Never in a state can the laws be well administered when fear does not stand firm.
National armies fight nations, royal armies fight their like, the first obey a mob, always demented and the second a king, generally sane. J. F. C. Fuller
