For My Part, Whatever Anguish Of Spirit

Show Me That Age And Country Where The Rights And Liberties Of The People Were Placed On The Sole Chance Of Their Rulers Being Good Men, Without A Consequent Loss Of Liberty?

Suspicion Is A Virtue As Long As Its Object Is The Public Good, And As Long As It Stays Within Proper Bounds. Guard With Jealous Attention The Public Liberty. Suspect Every One Who Approaches That Jewel.

Be Of Good Courage, My Son, And Remember That The Best Men Always Make Themselves.

Have We The Means Of Resisting Disciplined Armies, When Our Only Defense, The Militia, Is Put In The Hands Of Congress? Of What Service Would Militia Be To You When, Most Probably, You Will Not Have A Single Musket In The State? For, As Arms Are To Be Provided By Congress, They May Or May Not Provide Them.

The Bible Is Worth All The Other Books Which Have Ever Been Printed.
