When, in some obscure country town,
the farmers come together to a special town-meeting, 
to express their 
opinion on some subject 
which is vexing the land, 
that, I think, is the 
true Congress, 
and the most respectable one 
that is ever assembled in 
the United States.
Thoreau's essay "Slavery In Massachusets"  from 1854
