Quote of the Week
“I
saw in States Rights the only available check upon the absolutism of the
sovereign will, and secession filled me with hope, not as the
destruction but as the redemption of Democracy. I deemed you were
fighting the battles of our liberty, our progress, and our civilization
and I mourn for that which was lost at Richmond more deeply than I
rejoice over that which was saved at Waterloo."
-Lord Acton, in a letter to Gen. Robert E. Lee, November 4, 1866
