"great hope and inward zeal of laying some good foundation for the propagating and advancing of the Gospel of the Kingdom of Christ in these remote parts of the world,yea, though they should be as stepping stones to others for performing of so great a work."
William Bradford, HIstory of Plymoth Plantation

"I have lived a long time, and the longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth: that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire (great nation) can rise without His aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the sacred writings, that, "except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that built it"

Benjamin Franklin during debate at convention.
