I Have Met The Enemy, And It

When Men Differ In Opinion, Both Sides Ought Equally To Have The Advantage Of Being Heard By The Public; When Truth And Error Have Fair Play, The Former Is Always An Overmatch For The Latter.

Hereafter, If You Should Observe An Occasion To Give Your Officers And Friends A Little More Praise Than Is Their Due, And Confess More Fault Than You Can Justly Be Charged With, You Will Only Become The Sooner For It, A Great Captain.

If You Wou'd Have Guests Merry With Your Cheer, Be So Your Self, Or So At Least Appear.

Disdain The Chain, Preserve Your Freedom; And Maintain Your Independency: Be Industrious And Free; Be Frugal And Free.
