"Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity,
and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us
from the former, for the sake of the latter. The
necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for
our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude
and perseverance. Let us remember that "if we
suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty,
we encourage it, and involve others in our doom,"
it is a very serious consideration ... that millions
yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event."
-- Samuel Adams
