 No man is above the law and no man is below it; nor do we ask any man's permission when we ask him to obey it

 No man is justified in doing evil on the grounds of expedience

 No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his body - to risk his well-being - to risk his life - in a great cause

 No people ever yet benefited by riches if their prosperity corrupted their virtue

 One of the great sights which every American, if he can travel at all, should see.

 Peace is normally a great good, and normally it coincides with righteousness, but it is righteousness and not peace which should bind the conscience of a nation as it should bind the conscience of an individual; and neither a nation nor an individual can surrender conscience to another's keeping.
