"It is my living sentiment, and by the blessing of God it shall be my dying sentiment, independence now and independence forever." "A desire to resist oppression is implanted in the nature of man." "If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival.
