“If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” – Samuel Adams, American Revolutionary

In unvanquishable number-
Shake your chains to the Earth like

Which in sleep had fallen on you-
Ye are many - they are few."

‘If Finland, if Poland, if the Ukraine break away from Russia, there is nothing bad about that. Anyone who says there is, is a chauvinist. It would be madness to continue the policy of the Tsar Nicholas... No nation can be free if it oppresses other nations.’ V. I. Lenin
