It's A Poor Rule That Won't Work

A Man's Character Always Takes Its Hue, More Or Less, From The Form And Color Of Things About Him.

Now, Take The Constitution According To Its Plain Reading, And I Defy The Presentation Of A Single Pro-slavery Clause In It. On The Other Hand It Will Be Found To Contain Principles And Purposes, Entirely Hostile To The Existence Of Slavery.

I Escaped From Slavery And Became A Leading Abolitionist And Speaker.

It Was A Glorious Resurrection, From The Tomb Of Slavery, To The Heaven Of Slavery. My Long-crushed Spirit Rose, Cowardice Departed, Bold Defiance Took Its Place; And I Now Resolved That, However Long I Might Remain A Slave In Form, The Day Had Passed Forever When I Could Be A Slave In Fact.

To Suppress Free Speech Is A Double Wrong. It Violates The Rights Of The Hearer As Well As Those Of The Speaker.
