Answer:

forming a government while the chance exists.

Explanation:

Considering the quotation in the question, Thomas Paine in his Common Sense writing, which was published in 1776 when the American colonists were having issues with the British rule, recommended that America should form a government while the chance exists.

This is true because the quoted line says "..it is infinitely wiser and safer to form a constitution of our own in a cool deliberate manner, while we have it in our power than to trust such an interesting event to time and chance..."

How important of a role did the ideas from ancient Greek civilizations play in the development of the American political process
padilas [110]
The American Constitution was heavily based on the idea of democracy and a perfect world where people would have free speech and rights. The idea of democracy was derived from the earliest form of democracy, (direct) Roman democracy. As many people know, the Romans adopted a lot of Greek culture and ideas from taking over Ancient Greece in the times of the Roman Empire. This is what I think is how the American political process was formed from the basic standards of Greek civilizations.
