Quote

Washington is dead! This great man fought against Tyranny he established the liberty of his country. His memory will always be dear to the French people, as it will be to all free men of the two worlds and especially to French soldiers, who, like him and the American soldiers, have combated for liberty and equality.

Even when I am gone, I shall remain in people's minds the star of their rights, my name will be the war cry of their efforts, the motto of their hopes.
