I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.

Give me liberty or give me death.

I know of no way of judging the future but by the past.

Fear is the passion of slaves.

The eternal difference between right and wrong does not fluctuate, it is immutable.

I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.

Liberty, the greatest of all earthly blessings – give us that precious jewel and you may take everything else!

The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government – lest it come to dominate our lives and interests.
