Horace Mann: “Every Young Man, however obscure or powerless he may seem, can do something for the cause of freedom.”

The liberty of voting includes all other liberties.

Let me read to you the disparaging and contemptuous remark of the address on that great palladium of human liberty, the trial by jury.

A southern slave stands higher, politically, than a northern laborer, if the latter must vote as his employer dictates.

Better be debarred from the privilege of voting at all, than to be mocked with the form, while cheated of the substance.
