Famous quotes on Patriotism
#4
Hoopla Wrote:If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility 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; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

<Samuel Adams>

I suppose if you wanted to *modernize* this quote you could replace wealth with health.
If you want to modernize it just switch the words wealth and liberty around and while you are at it switch servitude and freedom too. Nice quote if you are living in the 1770's. I think I'll just stubbornly adhere to the Puritan religion instead. It's just as relevant.
