All men are created equal.

I am a real Christian, that is to say, a cisciple of the doctrines of Jesus. I have little doubt that our whole country will soon be rallied to the unity of our Creator.

The liberty of the whole earth was depending on the issue of the contest, and was ever such a prize won with so little innocent blood?

I fancy it must be the quantity of animal food eaten by the English which renders their character insusceptible to civilization. I suspect it is in their kitchens and not in their churches that the reformation must be worked.

I recoil with horror at the ferociousness of man. Will nations never devise a more rational umpire of differences than force? Are there no means of coercing injustice more gratifying to our nature than a waste of the blood of thousands and of the labor of millions of our fellow creatures?

When tempted to do any thing in secret, ask yourself if you would do it in public.

Dependence begets subservience and paves the way for tyranny.
