Let it be borne on the flag under which we rally in every exigency, that we have one country, one constitution, one destiny.
Daniel WebsterOn the diffusion of education among the people rest the preservation and perpetuation of our free institutions.
Daniel WebsterNow is the time when men work quietly in the fields and women weep softly in the kitchen; the legislature is in session and no man's property is safe.
Daniel WebsterIf the blessings of our political and social condition have not been too highly estimated, we cannot well overrate the responsibility and duty which they impose upon us. We hold these institutions of government, religion, and learning, to be transmitted, as well as enjoyed. We are in the line of conveyance, through which whatever has been obtained by the spirit and efforts of our ancestors is to be communicated to our children.
Daniel Webster
