If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom - go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen! --Samuel Adams, in a speech given August 1, 1776
#ill give it a rest for the weekend after this#but take some of the fire and rage from my favorite founding father#and move it into action#lets get mad! WERE FUCKING AMERICANS AND THERE ARE NO KINGS HERE.#by the way 'the tranquility of servitude ' is for those of you who wont call write or protest
