It Is But The Littleness Of Man

Example Acquires Tenfold Authority When It Speaks From The Grave.

No Free People Can Lose Their Liberties While They Are Jealous Of Liberty. But The Liberties Of The Freest People Are In Danger When They Set Up Symbols Of Liberty As Fetishes, Worshipping The Symbol Instead Of The Principle It Represents.

Eternal Vigilance Is The Price Of Liberty; Power Is Ever Stealing From The Many To The Few. The Manna Of Popular Liberty Must Be Gathered Each Day Or It Is Rotten. The Living Sap Of Today Outgrows The Dead Rind Of Yesterday. The Hand Entrusted With Power Becomes, Either Form Human Depravity Or Esprit De Corps, The Necessary Enemy Of The People. Only By Continued Oversight Can The Democrat In Office Be Prevented From Hardening Into A Despot; Only By Unintermitted Agitation Can A People Be Sufficiently Awake To Principle Not To Let Liberty Be Smothered In Material Prosperity.

What Is Fanaticism Today Is The Fashionable Creed Tomorrow, And Trite As The Multiplication Table A Week After.

The Labor Movement Means Just This: It Is The Last Noble Protest Of The American People Against The Power Of Incorporated Wealth.
