“If we wish to be free – if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so for long contending – if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall by obtained – we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of Hosts is all that is left us.”
--Patrick Henry
