"No freeman, who really loves liberty, and who has a just perception of its dignity, character, action and objects, will ever become a mere party man. He may have his preferences as to measures and man, may act in concert with those who think with himself, on occasions that require concert, but it will be his earnest endeavor to hold himself a free agent, and most of all to keep his mind untrammelled by the prejudices, frauds, and tyranny of factions."
