| Our safety, our liberty, depends upon preserving the Constitution of the United States as our fathers made it inviolate. The people of the United States are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. |
| Our strife pertains to ourselves - to the passing generations of men; and it can without convulsion be hushed forever with the passing of one generation |
