Patrick Henry
(1736-1799)
US Founding Father
"Bad men cannot make good citizens. It is when a people
forget God that
tyrants forge their chains. A vitiated state of morals, a
corrupted
public conscience, is incompatible with freedom. No free
government,
or the blessings of liberty, can be preserved to any people
but by a
firm adherence to justice, moderation, temperance,
frugality, and
virtue; and by a frequent recurrence to fundamental
principles."
