From Samuel Adams’ speech in Philadelphia, 01 August 1776
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom — go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
Robert Worthington says:
Hi Sean. I seen this words quoted on Glenn Beck tonight. I love that show, and by the way the tide is starting to turn slowly in my opinion! Long way to go but at least we are getting educated.
