Liberty For Each, For All, And Forever!

What Shall Be Said, Then, Of Those Who Insist Upon Ignoring The Question Of Slavery As Not Involved In This Deadly Feud, And Maintain That The Only Issue Is, The Support Of The Government And The Preservation Of The Union? Surely, They Are "fools And Blind"; For It Is Slaveholders Alone Who Have Conspired To Seize The One, And Overturn The Other. As Long As The Enslavement Of A Single Human Being Is Sanctioned In The Land, The Curse Of God Will Rest Upon It.

My Crime Is That I Will Not Go With The Multitude To Do Evil. My Singularity Is That When I Say That Freedom Is Of God And Slavery Is Of The Devil, I Mean Just What I Say. My Fanaticism Is That I Insist On The American People Abolishing Slavery, Or Ceasing To Prate On The Rights Of Man.

Tell A Man Whose House Is On Fire To Give A Moderate Alarm; Tell Him To Moderately Rescue His Wife From The Hands Of The Ravisher; Tell The Mother To Gradually Extricate Her Babe From The Fire Into Which It Has Fallen - But Urge Me Not To Use Moderation In A Cause Like The Present.

I Will Be As Harsh As Truth And As Uncompromising As Justice.

Be Faithful, Be Vigilant, Be Untiring In Your Efforts To Break Every Yoke, And Let The Oppressed Go Free. Come What May - Cost What It May - Inscribe On The Banner Which You Unfurl To The Breeze, As Your Religious And Political Motto - "no Compromise With Slavery! No Union With Slaveholders
