"Let us consider, brethren, we
are struggling for our best birthrights and inheritance, which being infringed,
renders all our blessings precarious in their enjoyments, and, consequently
triffling in their value. Let us disappoint the Men who are raising themselves
on the ruin of this Country. Let us convince every invader of our freedom, that
we will be as free as the constitution our fathers recognized, will
justify."
--Samuel Adams, A State of the Rights
of the Colonists, 1772
