Pagina 87 - Sir, before God, I believe the hour is come. My judgment approves this measure, and my whole heart is in it. All that I have, and all that I am, and all that I hope, in this life, I am now ready here to stake upon it ; and I leave off, as I begun, that live or die, survive or perish, I am for the declaration. It is my living sentiment, and by the blessing of God it shall be my dying sentiment ; independence, now; and INDEPENDENCE FOREVER.
Pagina 110 - And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom ; and to depart from evil is understanding.
