• This balance between the National and State governments ought to be dwelt on with peculiar attention, as it is of the utmost importance. It forms a double security to the people. If one encroaches on their rights they will find a powerful protection in the other. Indeed, they will both be prevented from overpassing their constitutional limits by a certain rivalship, which will ever subsist between them.

• In the first place, it is to be remembered, that the general government is not to be charged with the whole power of making and administering laws. Its jurisdiction is limited to certain enumerated objects, which concern all the members of the republic, but which are not to be attained by the separate provisions of any.

• [T]he States can best govern our home concerns and the general government our foreign ones. I wish, therefore . . . never to see all offices transferred to Washington, where, further withdrawn from the eyes of the people, they may more secretly be bought and sold at market.

• Mientras la constitución siga siendo leída y sus principios conocidos, los estados deben ser considerados, por todo hombre racional, como componentes esenciales de la unión; y por lo tanto la idea de sacrificar los primeros a los segundos es totalmente inadmisible.

• Each State, in ratifying the Constitution, is considered as a sovereign body, independent of all others, and only to be bound by its own voluntary act. In this relation, then, the new Constitution will, if established, be a FEDERAL, and not a NATIONAL constitution.

• But ambitious encroachments of the federal government, on the authority of the State governments, would not excite the opposition of a single State, or of a few States only. They would be signals of general alarm . . . But what degree of madness could ever drive the federal government to such an extremity.

• El concepto de movilidad, o "la capacidad de votar con los pies", es crucial para entender el federalismo en los Estados Unidos de hoy en día. Si no eres partidario de la pena de muerte y de que los ciudadanos lleven pistola, no vengas a Texas. Si no te gusta la marihuana medicinal y el matrimonio homosexual, no te mudes a California.

• Considero que los fundamentos de la Constitución se basan en que "todos los poderes que la Constitución no delega en los Estados Unidos ni prohíbe a los estados, están reservados a los estados o al pueblo". Dar un solo paso más allá de los límites así especialmente trazados en torno a los poderes del Congreso, es tomar posesión de un campo ilimitado de poder que ya no es susceptible de definición alguna.

• The administration of private justice between the citizens of the same state, the supervision of agriculture and of other concerns of a similar nature, all those things in short which are proper to be provided for by local legislation, can never be desirable cares of a general jurisdiction . . . the attempt to exercise these powers would be as troublesome as it would be nugatory; and the possession of them, for that reason, would contribute nothing to the dignity, to the importance, or to the splendour of the national government.

• The word "federalism" you might think that means federalism trumps everything; federalism means federal domination. It does not mean that. It means the exact opposite, in fact. It means the states are sovereign and the federal government cannot tell 'em what to do in so many different ways.
