"No people will tamely surrender
their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffusd and
Virtue is preservd. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and
debauchd in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the
Aid of foreign Invaders."
--Samuel Adams, letter to James
Warren, 1775
