There is a certain enthusiasm in liberty, that makes human nature rise above itself, in acts of bravery and heroism.

Rise above yourself.

Human nature is above all things lazy.

How can you rise, if you have not burned

Rise above principle and do what's right

The sacred rights of mankind are not to be rummaged for among old parchments or musty records. They are written, as with a sunbeam, in the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of the divinity itself; and can never be erased.
