 It's a great win for us, especially against someone of their caliber and someone I respect so much, ... It's a huge win, especially doing it here. In a game like this, people say it doesn't mean anything - but it does.

 It's the people of Prospect Park that's going to determine who's going to win, not the county.

 Laws and institutions must go hand and hand with the progress of the human mind

 Laws are made for men of ordinary understanding and should, therefore, be construed by the ordinary rules of common sense. Their meaning is not to be sought for in metaphysical subtleties which may make anything mean everything or nothing at pleasure

 Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.

 Leave all the afternoon for exercise and recreation, which are as necessary as reading. I will rather say more necessary because health is worth more than learning.

 Leave no authority existing not responsible to the people.

 Let common sense and common honesty have fair play, and they will soon set things to rights.

 Let them stand undisturbed as monuments of the safety with which error of opinion may be tolerated, where reason is left free to combat it

 Let those flatter who fear; it is not an American art

 Let us in education dream of an aristocracy of achievement arising out of a democracy of opportunity

 Let us no(t) weakly believe that one generation is not as capable as another of taking care of itself, and of ordering its own affairs.

 Let what will be said or done, preserve your sang froid immovably, and to every obstacle oppose patience, perseverance and soothing language

 Liberty is the great parent of science and of virtue; and a nation will be great in both always in proportion as it is free.

 Liberty is to the collective body, what health is to every individual body. Without health no pleasure can be tasted by man; without liberty, no happiness can be enjoyed by society.
