"It is also sanctioned by the dictates of justice and by the constitution of nature that he, who from the imbecility or derangement of his intellect is incapable of governing himself, should, like a minor, be committed to the government of another, and least of all should he be appointed to superintend the affairs of others or the interest of the state."
John Milton
Second Defense of the English People
1654
