Samuel Adams Quote

Famous Quote from Samuel Adams,

"If ye love wealth better than liberty,
the tranquility of servitude better than
the animating contest of freedom,
go home from us in peace.
We ask not your counsels or your arms.
Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.
May your chains set lightly upon you, and
may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
