Jackson, Andrew. "Second Inaugural Address." 4 Mar. 1833, House Chamber, US Capitol Building, Washington, DC, USA.

The destruction of our state governments or the annihilation of their control over the local concerns of the people would lead directly to revolution and anarchy, and finally to despotism and military domination. In proportion, therefore, as the general government encroaches upon the rights of the states, in the same proportion does it impair its own power and detract from its ability to fulfill the purposes of its creation.
