These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value ...

And this one feels apros-pos to the current time ...

I'm not even religious (at ALL) ... but I still love this one ... and it fits our vibe, so ...

Wow I just went to Wikipedia and found out that this song was written by the ad agency for Coke and the Hillside singers were assembled to record the commercial. Afterwards they released this recording without the coke references.

And tell it jokes and stuff.
And pull its pants down to its knees,
And chase it through the rough.
Then tie it up with bonds and straps,
And check it's purse for change.
And leave it out at Moose Grin Hall
With our cousin who's deranged.
