Let us, then, fellow citizens, unite with one heart and one mind. Let usrestore to social intercourse that harmony and affection without whichliberty and even life itself are but dreary things. And let us reflectthat having banished from our land that religious intolerance under whichmankind so long bled, we have yet gained little if we countenance apolitical intolerance as despotic, as wicked, and capable of a bitter andbloody persecutions. ― Thomas Jefferson
