Religion and good morals are the only solid foundation of public liberty and happiness.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

We have this day restored the Sovereign to Whom all men ought to be obedient. He reigns in heaven and from the rising to the setting of the sun, let His kingdom come.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

Rebellion against a king may ...

Rebellion against a king may be pardoned, or lightly punished, but the man who dares to rebel against the laws of a republic ought to suffer death.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

If the public are bound to yi...

If the public are bound to yield obedience to laws to which they cannot give their approbation, they are slaves to those who make such laws and enforce them.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

The necessity of the times, m...

The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

Let us consider, brethren, we...

Let us consider, brethren, we are struggling for our best birthrights and inheritance, which being infringed, renders all our blessings precarious in their enjoyments, and, consequently triffling in their value. Let us disappoint the Men who are raising themselves on the ruin of this Country. Let us convince every invader of our freedom, that we will be as free as the constitution our fathers recognized, will justify.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

I do not regret the part I ha...

I do not regret the part I have taken in a cause so just and interesting to mankind.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

We cannot make events. Our bu...

We cannot make events. Our business is wisely to improve them.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

The liberties of our country,...

The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil constitution, are worth defending against all hazards: And it is our duty to defend them against all attacks.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

It is not infrequent to hear ...

It is not infrequent to hear men declaim loudly upon liberty, who, if we may judge by the whole tenor of their actions, mean nothing else by it but their own liberty - to oppress without control, or the restraint of laws, all who are poorer and weaker than themselves.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

Our contest is not only wheth...

Our contest is not only whether we ourselves shall be free, but whether there shall be left to mankind an asylum on earth for civil and religious liberty.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

It behooves every American to...

It behooves every American to encourage home manufactures, that our oppressors may feel through their pockets the effects of their blind folly.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

The love of power, like the l...

The love of power, like the love of money, increases with the possession of it; and we know in what ruin these baneful passions have involved human societies in all ages when they have been let loose and suffered to rage uncontrolled - There is no restraint like the pervading eye of the virtuous citizens.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

The marriage state was design...

The marriage state was designed to complete the sum of human happiness in this life. It sometimes proves otherwise, but this is owing to the parties themselves, who either rush into it without due consideration or fail in point of discretion in their conduct towards each other afterwards.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

If we despond, public confide...

If we despond, public confidence is destroyed, the people will no longer yield their support to a hopeless contest, and American liberty is no more. Through the darkness which shrouds our prospects, the ark of safety is visible. Despondency becomes not the dignity of our cause, nor the character of those who are its supporters.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

We have proclaimed to the wor...

We have proclaimed to the world our determination 'to die freemen, rather than to live slaves.' We have appealed to Heaven for the justice of our cause, and in Heaven we have placed our trust.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

'But,' say the puling, pusill...

'But,' say the puling, pusillanimous cowards, 'we shall be subject to a long and bloody war if we declare independence.' On the contrary, I affirm it the only step that can bring the contest to a speedy and happy issue.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

For my own part, I have been ...

For my own part, I have been wont to converse with poverty; and however disagreeable a companion she may be thought to be by the affluent and luxurious, who were never acquainted with her, I can live happily with her the remainder of my life if I can thereby contribute to the redemption of my country.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

Numerous have been the manife...

Numerous have been the manifestations of God's providence in sustaining us. In the gloomy period of adversity, we have had 'our cloud by day and pillar of fire by night.' We have been reduced to distress, and the arm of Omnipotence has raised us up.

Samuel Adams 137 quotes

Neither the wisest constituti...

Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt.
