Samual Adams Quotes

"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." August 1, 1776

"If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin."

"It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in the peoples minds."
Yes, Samual Adams is more than a beer label.
