Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined.
Patrick Henry was born on this day, May 29, 1736 & died June 6, 1799
The Treasure
Stand guard with swords held high
When a liberty thief approaches
Such a precious treasure, our freedom
Be aware when tyranny encroaches
Set high on your list of priorities
Lest your children become encaged
Any sinister step toward your freedom
Is cause to become enraged
