Let us, then, fellow citizens, unite with one heart and one mind. Let us restore to social intercourse that harmony and affection without which liberty and even life itself are but dreary things. And let us reflect that having banished from our land that religious intolerance under which mankind so long bled, we have yet gained little if we counternance a political intolerance as despotic, as wicked, and capable of a bitter and bloody persecutions.

I have ever judged of the religion of others by their lives. For it is in our lives, and not from our works, that our religion must be read.

Peace, that glorious moment in time when everyone stops and reloads.

Our civil rights have no dependence upon our religious opinions more than our opinions in physics or geometry.

Self-love . . . is the sole antagonist of virtue, leading us constantly by our propensities to self-gratification in violation of our moral duties to others.

. . . in the full tide of successful experiment.

Be assured that it gives much more pain to the mind to be in debt, than to do without any article whatever which we may seem to want.
