Gentlemen, do you know what is the finest speech that I ever in my life heard or read? It is the address of Garibaldi to his Roman soldiers, when he told them: "Soldier, what I have to offer you is fatigue, danger, struggle and death; the chill of the cold night in the free air, and heat under the burning sun; no lodgings, no munitions, no provisions, but forced marches, dangerous watchposts and the continual struggle with the bayonet against batteries;- - those who love freedom and their country may follow me." That is the most glorious speech I ever heard in my life.

I have to thank the people, Congress and Government of the United States, for my liberation from captivity.

I believe that the confidence of Hungary in me is not shaken by misfortune nor broken by my calumniators.

My nomination to be Governor was not to gratify ambition.

Ethics may be defined as the obligations of morality.

The cause of freedom is identified with the destinies of humanity, and in whatever part of the world it gains ground by and by, it will be a common gain to all those who desire it.

I consider that it is on instruction and education that the future security and direction of the destiny of every nation chiefly and fundamentally rests.
