I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.
God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a
nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties
are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect
that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever. Commerce between
master and slave is despotism. Nothing is more certainly written in the
book of fate than these people are to be free. Establish the law for
educating the common people. This it is the business of the state to effect
and on a general plan.
