I just found an approving discussion of Morris in The Daily Caller, for whom every Democrat is a Fifth Column Communist. It's important to note that he wrote these words in 1792, which was during the turbulent days that led to those who led the Revolution to turn on each other and eventually prepare the way for a dictator, Napoleon Bonaparte, in 1799. So, the end was approaching rapidly, but I think that Morris mistook an honest revulsion for rule by purse and pulpit for a less productive anarchy. "Since I have been in this Country, I have seen the Worship of many Idols and but little of the true God." With that statement he identified with every revanchist jerk in history who knew down deep that what he believed in was horse waste and would kill rather than be reminded of that fact.
Yeah, the research I did on him was somewhat disheartening -- more than just a little actually -- that his surrender to God, in whatever apparition, was more important to him than a foundational Democracy based on the laws of men and the reality of science was distasteful to say the least, his great seven words to the contrary.

“Don Quixote” as an adjective... I’m unsure what the meaning of it is, whether ‘crazy’ or ‘ideal’ or something else!

But seriously. He's a raging elitest right-wing nutjob who would "hurrah" this SCOTUS.
Speaking as one whose grandfather came from Montreal, and whose familyvtree was on the city charter in 1642:
"Oh, the French they are a funny race, parlez vous,
They fight with their feet and f**k with their face, parlez vous!"
