"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
"You and I have the courage to say to our enemies, "There is a price we will not pay." "There is a point beyond which they must not advance."
"We'll preserve for our Children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we'll sentence them to take the last step into a thousand years of darkness."~~RR

Nine signers died of wounds during the Revolutionary War,
Five were captured or imprisoned.
Wives and children were killed, jailed, mistreated or left penniless.
Twelve Signers' houses were burned to the ground.
Seventeen lost everything they owned.
No signer defected–Their HONOR, like their NATION REMAINED INTACT.
