In Henry's "Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death" his main argument is that if the
colonies want liberty from Great Britain, they're going to have to fight for it. Select
the textual evidence that supports this claim.
A. Mr. President: No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as
abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the House. But
different men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore,
hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as
do, opinions of a character very opposite to theirs, I shall speak forth my
sentiments freely, and without reserve.
B. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offence, I
should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of
disloyalty toward the majesty of heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.
C. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now
too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and
slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable and let it come! I repeat it, sir, let it come
D. Ask yourselves how this gracious reception of our petition comports with these war-like preparations which cover our waters and darken our land.
