I recently saw this quote from Sam Adams regarding freedom, and thought it was some of the best political rhetoric ever spoken:
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude
greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace.
We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand
that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity
forget that ye were our countrymen."
—Samuel Adams
What ever happened to this kind of politicking?
