Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power. Three millions of people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, and in such
a country as that which we possess, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send
against us. Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides
over the destinies of nations; and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The
battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. 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!
