epershand Why do you insist on dancing with Mr. Adams? Good Lord, Sir, you don't even like him!
epershand: @belledezuylen It's true, he annoys me quite a lot. But still I'd rather trot to Mr. Adams' new gavotte.
belledezuylen: @epershand But why? For personal glory? A place in history? Be careful, sir! History will brand him and his followers as traitors!
epershand: @belledezuylen Traitors, Mr. Dickinson? To what? The British Crown or the British half-crown?
epershand: @belledezuylen Fortunately there are not enough men of property in America to dictate policy.
belledezuylen: @epershand Perhaps not--but don't forget that most men with nothing would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich...
belledezuylen: @epershand ... than face the reality of being poor. And that is why they will always follow us.
penguinkye: @belledezuylen @epershand TO THE CHORUS!
epershand: @penguinkye TO THE RIGHT, EVER TO THE RIGHT. NEVER TO THE LEFT, FOREVER TO THE RIGHT.
