Answer:

The quote by James Madison supports the principle of the separation of powers, like in the American government the division of the government between the three branches; executive, legislative, and judicial. If the United States government wasn't divided between the three branches (powers weren't separated) then people in power would have the ability to easily abuse the power that they were given. If all the power rested in the hand of a single branch there would be fewer opinions and less representatives of the people. The people would be represented by a small few that would be less likely to be truly representative of the people  

If the government consisted of a single branch, it would create the same chaos that the British American people had attempted to eradicate so many years before. With only a few representatives, the power that the few in high positions would hold would be a dangerous amount. Madison's quote reflects this, saying that too much power in a single place can "[endanger] liberty". America needs a government that doesn't have a concentration of power in one branch or any other single place, but a variety of representatives that have the opportunity to check the power of the other branches as well as split the powers and responsibilities.
