• Liberty is to faction what air is to fire, an aliment without
  which it instantly expires. But it could not be less folly to
  abolish liberty, which is essential to political life, because
  it nourishes faction, than it would be to wish the annihilation
  of air, which is essential to animal life, because it imparts to
  fire its destructive agency.

It will bring a mark of everlasting infamy on the present generation enlightened as it is if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of designing men.

  Samuel Adams
