"Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to
conscience, above all liberties."

"Though all the winds of doctrine were let loose to play upon the earth, so

misdoubt her strength.  Let her and Falsehood grapple; who ever knew Truth
put to the worse, in a free and open encounter?"
