The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time; the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them. . . . Love your neighbor as yourself and your country more than yourself. . . . The boisterous sea of liberty is never without a wave. . . . I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man. . . . The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.
All human eyes have longing in them.
