Daniel Webster
The people's government, made for the people, made by the people, and answerable to the people.
Daniel Webster
Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution of your country and the government established under it. Leave evils which exist in some parts of the country, but which are beyond your control, to the all-wise direction of an over-ruling Providence.

Daniel Webster
I shall oppose all slavery extension and all increase of slave representation in all places, at all times, under all circumstances, even against all inducements, against all supposed limitations of great interests, against all combinations, against all compromises.
Daniel Webster
If the true spark of religious and civil liberty be kindled, it will burn.
Daniel Webster
The most important thought that ever occupied my mind is that of my individual responsibility to God.
Daniel Webster
No man not inspired can make a good speech without preparation.
Daniel Webster
On the light of Liberty you saw arise the light of Peace, like another morn, Risen on mid-noon and the sky on which you closed your eye was cloudless.
Daniel Webster
Nothing of character is really permanent but virtue and personal worth.
Daniel Webster
The dignity of history consists in reciting events with truth and accuracy, and in presenting human agents and their actions in an interesting and instructive form. The first element in history, therefore, is truthfulness and this truthfulness must be displayed in a concrete form.
Daniel Webster
I was born an American I will live an American I shall die an American.
