Patrick
Henry
"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.
Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous
struggle for liberty? ... 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."
-
Patrick Henry, "Give me Liberty or Give Me Death",
March 23, 1775.

John
Hancock
"Some
boast of being friends to government; I am a friend to righteous
government, to a government founded upon the principles
of reason and justice; but I glory in publicly avowing my
eternal enmity to tyranny."
-
John Hancock, March 5, 1774, Oration on the Anniversary
of the Boston Massacre of 1770

Samuel
Adams
"Courage,
then, my countrymen, 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."

delivered at the State House in Philadelphia, August 1,

George

James
Madison
"Ambition
must be made to counteract ambition. ... In framing a government
which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty
lies in this: you must first enable the government to control
the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control
itself."

Thomas
Jefferson
"We
hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created
equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with inherent
and inalienable rights; that among these, are life, liberty,
and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights,
governments are instituted among men, deriving their just
powers from the consent of the governed"

Benjamin
Franklin
""Idleness
and pride tax with a heavier hand than kings and parliaments.
If we can get rid of the former, we may easily bear the
latter. "
