I think you may be thinking of Thomas Jefferson, who wrote this in the U.S. Declaration of Independence. ..."But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."... Thomas Jefferson
