There is one class of men, whom it especially behoves to be tenacious of the right of free discussion. I mean the poor.

Our concern, however, is with slavery as it is, and not with any theory of it.

It is manifestly vital to the success of the anti-slavery cause, that the authority and influence of proslavery, especially of slaveholding, ministers should be destroyed.

When a good man lends himself to the advocacy of slavery, he must, at least for a time, feel himself to be any where but at home, amongst his new thoughts, doctrines, and modes of reasoning.

My rights all spring front an infinitely nobler source - from favor and grace of God.

I need say no more, to prove that slavery is entirely unlike the servitude in the patriarchal families.

I welcomed the organization of the Anti-slavery Society.
