"I believe there is yet a spirit of resistance in this country, which will not submit to be oppressed; but I am sure there is a fund of good sense in this country, which cannot be deceived."

"Loyalty, in the heart and understanding of an Englishman, is a rational attachment to the guardian of the laws."

"The submission of free people to the executive authority of government, is no more than a compliance with laws which they themselves have enacted."

"The liberty of the press is the palladium of all the civil, political, and religious rights of an Englishman."
