"These are the times that try men's souls.The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will,in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country;but he that stands it now,deserves the love and thanks of man and woman Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us,that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods;
and it would be strange indeed,if so celestial an article as Freedom should not be highly rated."
-- Thomas Paine
(1737-1809)
