When A Great Truth Once Gets Abroad

We May Explain Success Mainly By One Word And That Word Is Work! Work!! Work!!! Work!!!!

We Succeed, Not Alone By The Laborious Exertions Of Our Faculties, Be They Small Or Great, But By The Regular, Thoughtful And Systematic Exercise Of Them.

In One Point Of View, We, The Abolitionists And Colored People, Should Meet [the Dred Scott] Decision, Unlooked For And Monstrous As It Appears, In A Cheerful Spirit. This Very Attempt To Blot Out Forever The Hopes Of An Enslaved People May Be One Necessary Link In The Chain Of Events Preparatory To The Downfall And Complete Overthrow Of The Whole Slave System.

If There Is No Struggle, There Is No Progress....this Struggle May Be A Moral One; Or It May Be A Physical One; Or It May Be Both Moral And Physical; But It Must Be A Struggle. Power Concedes Nothing Without A Demand. It Never Did And It Never Will.

I Know No Class Of My Fellowmen, However Just, Enlightened, And Humane, Which Can Be Wisely And Safely Trusted Absolutely With The Liberties Of Any Other Class.
