Founders' Quote Daily
"The Grecians and Romans were strongly possessed of the spirit of
liberty but not the principle, for at the time they were determined
not to be slaves themselves, they employed their power to enslave
the rest of mankind."
-- Thomas Paine (The American Crisis, No. 5, 21 March 1778)
Reference: Paine Writings, Foner, 169.
