“New Englanders began the Revolution not to institute reforms and changes in the order of things, but to save the institutions and customs that already had become old and venerable with them; and were new only to a few stupid Englishmen a hundred and fifty years behind the times.”
Edward Pearson Pressey, History of Montague; A Typical Puritan Town

Thomas Paine
“Perhaps no two events ever united so intimately and forceably to combat and expel prejudice, as the Revolution of America, and the Alliance with France. Their effects are felt, and their influence already extends as well to the old world as the new. Our style and manner of thinking have undergone a revolution, more extraordinary than the political revolution of the country. We see with other eyes; we hear with other ears; and think with other thoughts, than those we formerly used.”
Thomas Paine, A Letter Addressed to the Abbe Raynal on the Affairs of North America

Ann Rinaldi
“I find American girls have a spirit and honesty about them that is most refreshing.”
Ann Rinaldi, Time Enough for Drums

“Vox populi vox Dei”
Attributed to Stephen A. Douglas

“On January 27, 1778, the -Articles of Confederation-, recently adopted by Congress, were debated here [Montague, Massachusetts]. It was 'voted to approve of the Articles, except the first clause,' giving Congress the power to declare peace and war. This it was resolved, 'belongs to the people.”
Edward Pearson Pressey, History of Montague; A Typical Puritan Town
