The laws of certain states ...give an ownership in the service of negroes as personal property.... But being men, by the laws of God and nature, they were capable of acquiring liberty-and when the captor in war ...thought fit to give them liberty, the gift was not only valid, but irrevocable.
Alexander Hamilton

Elihu Root
Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books - especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day.
John Wooden
