"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?" the rousing orator reportedly thundered before the Second Virginia Convention at St. John's Episcopal Church in Richmond. "Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
