"The Character of a City is Known by the Character of the Men it Crowns."
"Let us speak plain—there is more force in names
Than most men dream of; and a lie may keep
Its throne a whole age longer, if it skulk
Behind the shield of some fair-seeming name.
Let us call tyrants tyrants, and maintain
That only freedom comes by grace of God,
And all that comes not by His grace, must fall:
For men in earnest have no time to waste
In patching fig-leaves for the naked truth."
—Lowell.
