Human nature itself is evermore an advocate for liberty. There is also in human nature a resentment of injury, and indignation against wrong. A love of truth and a veneration of virtue. These amiable passions, are the "latent spark" . . . If the people are capable of understanding, seeing and feeling the differences between true and false, right and wrong, virtue and vice, to what better principle can the friends of mankind apply than to the sense of this difference?

Thomas Jefferson survives.

It will be celebrated... with pomp and parade... bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other.

Liberty, once lost, is lost forever.

Let them revere nothing but religion, morality and liberty.

Government is nothing more than the combined force of society, or the united power of the multitude, for the peace, order, safety, good and happiness of the people.

Let justice be done though the heavens should fall.
