I met a Californian who would/ Talk California --a state so blessed/ He said, in climate, none had ever died there/ A natural death, and Vigilance Committees/ Had had to organize to stock the graveyards/ And vindicate the state's humanity.

I can tell you that it takes great strength to surrender. You have to know that you are not going to collapse. Instead, you are going to open to a power that you don't even know, and it is going to come to meet you. In the process of healing, this is one of the huge things that I have discovered. People recognized the energy coming to meet them. When they opened to another energy, a love, a divine love, came through to meet them. That is what is known as grace. We all sing about amazing grace. It is a gift. I think that it comes through the work that we do. For some people, it can come out of the blue, but I know that in my own situation, the grace came through incredible vigilance.

Here is the answer which I will give to President Roosevelt... We shall not fail or falter we shall not weaken or tire. Neither the sudden shock of battle nor the long-drawn trials of vigilance and exertion will wear us down. Give us the tools and we will finish the job.

In a democracy -- even if it is a so-called democracy like our white-?litist one -- the greatest veneration one can show the rule of law is to keep a watch on it, and to reserve the right to judge unjust laws and the subversion of the function of the law by the power of the state. That vigilance is the most important proof of respect for the law.

Prudence operates on life in the same manner as rule of composition; it produces vigilance rather than elevation; rather prevents loss than procures advantage; and often miscarriages, but seldom reaches either power or honor.

Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty--power is ever stealing from the many to the few.
|
Beware of rashness, but with energy, and sleepless vigilance, go forward and give us victories.
|
There is, indeed, nothing that so much seduces reason from vigilance, as the thought of passing life with an amiable woman.
|
I sometimes think that the price of liberty is not so much eternal vigilance as eternal dirt.

There is nothing so much seduces reason from vigilance as the thought of passing life with an amiable woman in marriage.
