A Quote by Stanley Baldwin
"Magna Carta is the Law: Let the King look out." So it has always been with tyrants among our own people: when the King was tyrant, let him look out. And it has always been the same, and will be the same, whether the tyrant be the Barons, whether the tyrant be the Church, whether he be demagogue or dictator - let them look out.

The king is as much bound by his oath not to infringe the legal rights of the people, as the people are bound to yield subjection to him.
