Abraham Lincoln Says

"What constitutes the bulwark of our own liberty and in

dependence?...Our reliance is in the love of liberty which God has planted in our bosoms. Our defense is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men, in all lands, everywhere.

Destroy this spirit, and you have planted the seeds of despotism around your own doors. Familiarize yourselves with the chains of bondage, and you are preparing your own limbs to wear them."

Speech, Edwardsville, Ill. Sept. 11, 1858
