"Liberty without virtue would be no blessing to us."
"By renouncing the Bible, philosophers swing from their moorings upon all moral subjects... It is the only correct map of the human heart that ever has been published."
"The only foundation for a useful education in a republic is to be laid in religion. Without this there can be no virtue, and without virtue there can be no liberty."
-- Benjamin Rush (1746-1813), physician & political leader, member of the Continental Congress, & signer of the Declaration of Idependence
