Democracy has, therefore, two excesses to avoid-the spirit of inequality, which leads to aristocracy or monarchy, and the spirit of extreme equality, which leads to despotic power, as the latter is completed by conquest.
Demokraziak, beraz, saihestu beharreko gehiegikeriak ditu: desberdintasun-izpiritua, aristokraziara edo bakar baten gobernura daramana; eta erabateko berdintasunaren izpiritua, bakar baten despotismora daramana, bakar baten despotismoa konkistan amaitzen den bezala.
