But America is a great, unwieldy Body. Its Progress must be slow... Like a Coach and six - the swiftest Horses must be slackened and the slowest quickened, that all may keep an even Pace.

Wherever the standard of freedom and independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will be America's heart, her benedictions and her prayers.

Try and fail,but don't fail to try.

Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

From the day of the Declaration...they (the American people) were bound by the laws of God, which they all, and by the laws of The Gospel, which they nearly all, acknowledge as the rules of their conduct.

America is a friend of freedom everywhere, but a custodian only of our own.
