A quote for today from Sam Adams:

[RadicalTexan]

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, we ask not your counsel or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands of those who feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you and may we forget that ye were our countrymen.”

[UnrepentantUnitarian]

-Patrick Henry

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, we ask not your counsel or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands of those who feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you and may we forget that ye were our countrymen.
-Samual Adams
