What I can do for my country, I am willing to do.

My sentiments for the American cause, from the Stamp Act downward, have never changed... I am still of opinion that it is the cause of liberty and of human nature.

I can, therefore I am.

I can only be who I am.

I've proved to be as difficult to convert as I am to hypnotize.

I am happy to be alive, as long as I can paint.
