"The controlling and regulating of the public's passions are not supposed to be done by government officials acting as Platonic guardians. Rather, the controlling and regulating are to be done by the government's architecture, by the tension between, and the mutual wariness of, its competing institutions. These should temper public passions by channeling them through countervailing institutions that compel the passions to be felt only indirectly by those making policy." - George Will
