It Is In The Interest Of Tyrants

The Natural Liberty Of Man Is To Be Free From Any Superior Power On Earth, And Not To Be Under The Will Or Legislative Authority Of Man, But Only To Have The Law Of Nature For His Rule.

Crouch Down And Lick The Hands Which Feed You. May Your Chains Sit Lightly Upon You, And May Posterity Forget That You Were Our Countrymen!

We Boast Of Our Freedom, And We Have Your Example For It. We Talk The Language We Have Always Heard You Speak.

The Sum Of All Is, If We Would Most Truly Enjoy This Gift Of Heaven, Let Us Become A Virtuous People.

Our Contest Is Not Only Whether We Ourselves Shall Be Free, But Whether There Shall Be Left To Mankind An Asylum On Earth For Civil And Religious Liberty.
