Popular passages
Page 16 - The States have their status in the Union, and they have no other legal status. If they break from this, they can only do so against law and by revolution. The Union, and not themselves separately, procured their independence and their liberty. By conquest or purchase the Union gave each of them whatever of independence or liberty it has. The Union is older than any of the States, and, in fact, it created them as States.
Page 159 - The air broke into a mist with bells, The old walls rocked with the crowd and cries. Had I said, "Good folk, mere noise repels — But give me your sun from yonder skies!" They had answered, "And afterward, what else?
Page 16 - Would it be far wrong to define it "a political community without a political superior"? Tested by this, no one of our States except Texas ever was a sovereignty. And even Texas gave up the character on coming into the Union ; by which act...

Page 16 - Having never been states, either in substance or in name, outside of the Union, whence this magical omnipotence of " state rights," asserting a claim of power to lawfully destroy the Union itself? Much is said about the "sovereignty...

Page 15 - Rights," asserting a claim of power to lawfully destroy the Union itself?
