The contest for ages has been to rescue liberty from the grasp of executive power.
From Daniel Webster
Justice, sir, is the great interest of man on earth. It is the ligament which holds civilized beings and civilized nations together.
How little do they see what really is, who frame their hasty judgment upon that which seems.
A country cannot subsist well without liberty, nor liberty without virtue.
On the diffusion of education among the people rest the preservation and perpetuation of our free institutions.
When tillage begins, other arts follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of human civilization.
There is no refuge from confession but suicide; and suicide is confession.
He who tampers with the currency robs labor of its bread.
The people's government, made for the people, made by the people, and answerable to the people.
Let us not forget that the cultivation of the earth is the most important labor of man. When tillage begins, other arts will follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of civilization.
