If I am to be properly responsive to the will of my constituents, it is my duty to place their principles, not mine, above all else. This may not always be easy, but, nevertheless, it is the essence of democracy: faith in the wisdom of the people and their views. To be sure, the people will make mistakes – they will get no better government than they deserve – but that is far better than for a representative of the people to say that he knows better than the people do about what is good for them.
