NUMBER:5519
AUTHOR:Daniel Webster (1782–1852)
QUOTATION:I shall enter on no encomium upon Massachusetts; she needs none. There she is. Behold her, and judge for yourselves. There is her history; the world knows it by heart. The past, at least, is secure. There is Boston and Concord and Lexington and Bunker Hill; and there they will remain forever.
ATTRIBUTION:Second Speech on Foot’s Resolution, Jan. 26, 1830. P. 317.
