Wendell Phillips

“How prudently most men creep into nameless graves, while now and then one or two forget themselves into immortality.”

“External vigilance is the price of liberty.”

“Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.”

“What is defeat? Nothing but education; nothing but the first step to something better.”

“Write on my gravestone: 'Infidel, Traitor.', infidel to every church that compromises with wrong; traitor to every government that oppresses the people.”
