Thaddeus Stevens: "We shall oppose this amendment and any legislation that so affronts natural law insulting to God as to man. Congress must never declare equal those whom God created unequal. Slavery is the only insult to the natural law, you fatuous nincompoop."

Blood's been spilled to afford us this moment now! Now! Now! And you grouse so and heckle and dodge about like pettifogging Tammany Hall hucksters!"
