“These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sun-shine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it NOW, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.” -Thomas Paine, The American Crisis (1776 — 1783)
«Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor” «Tis not in numbers but in unity that our great strength lies; yet our present numbers are sufficient to repel the force of all the world.” “The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind.” -Thomas Paine, Common Sense (1775 — 1776)
