*In times of political indifference, it forms the bridge to pass over to better times.
*It gives a strong feeling of right and a powerful motivation to action to have the written law clearly on
one’s side.
*It serves as a beacon to apprise the people when their rights and liberties are invaded and endangered.
*It protects the people from frequent and violent fluctuations of public opinion.
