Samuel Adams

I ran across this quote from one of our forefathers.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go 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

Many of us today think we are so much smarter, so much wiser than those simple men of a few hundred years ago. But the more time you spend reading what these guys said...the more you will come to the conclusion that they were A LOT SMARTER THAN WE ARE TODAY.
