It Requires Time To Bring Honest Men

We Cannot Make Events. Our Business Is Wisely To Improve Them.

Could I Be Assured That America Would Remain Virtuous, I Would Venture To Defy The Utmost Efforts Of Enemies To Subjugate Her.

Let Divines And Philosophers, Statesmen And Patriots, Unite Their Endeavors To Renovate The Age By Impressing The Minds Of Men With The Importance Of Educating Their Little Boys And Girls, Inculcating In The Minds Of Youth The Fear And Love Of The Deity... And Leading Them In The Study And Practice Of The Exalted Virtues Of The Christian System.

In The Midst Of These Pleasing Ideas We Should Be Unfaithful To Ourselves If We Should Ever Lose Sight Of The Danger To Our Liberties If Anything Partial Or Extraneous Should Infect The Purity Of Our Free, Fair, Virtuous, And Independent Elections.

All Might Be Free If They Valued Freedom, And Defended It As They Should.
