My crime is that I will not go with the multitude to do evil. My singularity is that when I say that freedom is of God and slavery is of the devil, I mean just what I say. My fanaticism is that I insist on the American people abolishing slavery, or ceasing to prate on the rights of man.

There is no safety where there is no strength; no strength without Union; no Union without justice; no justice where faith and truth are wanting. The right to be free is a truth planted in the hearts of men.

And now let me give the sentiment which has been, and ever will be, the governing passion of my soul: 'Liberty for each, for all, and forever!'

Slavery will not be overthrown without excitement, a most tremendous excitement.

Everyone should be treated fairly no matter what they look like.

Since the creation of the world there has been no tyrant like Intemperance, and no slaves so cruelly treated as his.

Are right and wrong convertible terms, dependant upon popular opinion?
