Mankind Are Governed More By Their Feelings

Were The Talents And Virtues, Which Heaven Has Bestowed On Men, Given Merely To Make Then More Obedient Drudges, To Be Sacrificed To The Follies And Ambition Of A Few? Or, Were Not The Noble Gifts So Equally Dispensed With A Divine Purpose And Law, That They Should As Nearly As Possible Be Equally Exerted, And The Blessings Of Providence Be Equally Enjoyed By All?

If Ever A Time Should Come, When Vain And Aspiring Men Shall Possess The Highest Seats In Government, Our Country Will Stand In Need Of Its Experienced Patriots To Prevent Its Ruin.

He Therefore Is The Truest Friend To The Liberty Of His Country Who Tries Most To Promote Its Virtue, And Who, So Far As His Power And Influence Extend, Will Not Suffer A Man To Be Chosen Into Any Office Of Power And Trust Who Is Not A Wise And Virtuous Man.

It Is No Dishonor To Be In A Minority In The Cause Of Liberty And Virtue

How Strangely Will The Tools Of A Tyrant Pervert The Plain Meaning Of Words!
