Sentiment: NEGATIVE
While we should never give up our principles, we must also realize that we cannot maintain our principles unless we survive.
The challenge is always before us. Whenever we lose sight of the principles that mattered to our founders we run into trouble.
We will not try to replace our founding principles, we will reapply our founding principles.
We are beaten, we will make no bones about it; but we are not too badly beaten still to fight.
We can only win by giving everything and being ready to defeat the adversary with fiery aggression.
We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.
I cannot surrender my principles, though the whole world besides should vote them down - I can make no compromise between truth and error, even though my life be the alternative.
Conquer we shall, but, we must first contend! It's not the fight that crowns us, but the end.
We have a battle over the fundamentals of our country.
We are never defeated unless we give up on God.
