The cause of America is, in a great measure, the cause of all mankind. Many
circumstances have, and will arise, which are not local, but universal, and
through which the principles of all lovers of mankind are affected, and in the
event of which, their affections are interested. The laying a country desolate
with fire and sword, declaring war against the natural rights of all mankind,
and extirpating the defenders thereof from the face of the earth, is the concern
of every man to whom nature hath given the power of feeling.
Thomas Paine, Feb. 14, 1776 from "Common Sense"
If you’re a puppy and your owner has just given you a bath prior to a trip to the vet, what do you do just before leaving? Why, you sneak outside and dig in the muddy flower beds, of course.
