• Hemos jurado, y no a la ligera. Cumpliremos este juramento. Se nos amenaza con muchos males, y la traición no es el menor; pero una cosa no se dice: que sufriremos por cobardía, por cobardía o por miedo a la cobardía. Por eso digo que seguiremos adelante, y añado esta fatalidad: las hazañas que hagamos serán materia de canción hasta los últimos días de Arda.

• Americans cannot comprehend how their fellow countrymen could not love their country. But the left's anti-Americanism is intrinsic to their entire worldview.

They instinctively root for anarchy against civilization. The inevitable logic of the liberal position is to be for treason.

• It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. For there is a reserve of latent power in the masses which, if it is called into play, the minority can seldom resist. But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.

• ... es más que una pequeña traición a la República llamar sirviente a un ciudadano libre. A toda la clase de mujeres jóvenes, cuyo sustento depende de su trabajo, se les enseña a creer que la pobreza más abyecta es preferible al servicio doméstico. Cientos de muchachas semidesnudas trabajan en las fábricas de papel, o en cualquier otra manufactura, por menos de la mitad del salario que recibirían en el servicio; pero piensan que su igualdad se ve comprometida por este último, y nada, excepto el deseo de obtener algún artículo particular de adorno, las inducirá jamás a someterse a él.

• Corruption is knowing when something is not being done, knowing when the American people are being left unprotected and when you make a decision not to do something to protect the American people And you effectively allow 9/11 to occur. That is the ultimate form of government corruption-dereliction of duty. That's subject in the military to prosecution, to court martial. Frankly, if not treason.
