It Is Natural To Man

The American Revolution Was The Grand Operation, Which Seemed To Be Assigned By The Deity To The Men Of This Age In Our Country, Over And Above The Common Duties Of Life

It Is Natural For Man To Indulge In The Illusions Of Hope. We Are Apt To Shut Our Eyes Against A Painful Truth, And Listen To The Song Of That Siren Till She Transforms Us Into Beasts... For My Part, Whatever Anguish Of Spirit It May Cost, I Am Willing To Know The Whole Truth, To Know The Worst, And To Provide For It.

I Shall Act As I Think My Duty Requires.

Human Nature Will Never Part With Power. Look For An Example Of A Voluntary Relinquishment Of Power From One End Of The Globe To Another - You Will Find None.

I Know Not What Others May Choose But, As For Me, Give Me Liberty Or Give Me Death.
