"Even you, my old friend - my old enemy? How shall I call you, Sam Adams? Even you will give the best you have - a genius for politics. Oh, go to Philadelphia! Pull all the wool, pull all the strings and all the wires. Yes, go, go! And God go with you. We need you, Sam. We must fight this war. You'll play your part - but what it is really about... you will never know."

James Otis was on his feet, his head close against the rafters that cut down into the attic, making it the shape of a tent. Otis put out his arms.

"It is all so much simpler than you think," he said.

He lifted his hands and pushed against the rafters. "We give all we have, lives, property, safety, skills... we fight, we die, for a simple thing. Only that a man can stand up."

- Esther Forbes, Johnny Tremain
"I like being a cat in my home circle," said Mrs. Bantry. "I don't much like women anyway, and you know it. I like men and flowers."

"Excellent taste," said Sir Henry. "Especially in putting men first."

"That was tact," said Mrs. Bantry.

"I was walking down Fifth Avenue today and I found a wallet, and I was gonna keep it, rather than return it, but I thought: well, if I lost a hundred and fifty dollars, how would I feel?

"And I realized I would want to be taught a lesson."
