A People Averse To The

Truth Is The Only Merit That Gives Dignity And Worth To History.

History Provides Neither Compensation For Suffering Nor Penalties For Wrong.

Liberty, Next To Religion Has Been The Motive Of Good Deeds And The Common Pretext Of Crime.

A Generous Spirit Prefers That His Country Should Be Poor, And Weak, And Of No Account, But Free, Rather Than Powerful, Prosperous, And Enslaved.

Liberty Has Not Only Enemies Which It Conquers, But Perfidious Friends, Who Rob The Fruits Of Its Victories: Absolute Democracy, Socialism.
