Thomas Paine@thomas-paine Β· 23 December 1776
These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
