"Give me freedom or give me death" is a phrase that has become iconic in the history of the United States, representing the willingness of some to fight and die for their beliefs. It was famously spoken by Patrick Henry, a lawyer and politician who played a significant role in the American Revolution.
The phrase was first spoken by Henry during a speech he gave at the Virginia Convention in 1775, at a time when tensions between the American colonies and Great Britain were at an all-time high. Henry argued that the colonies needed to take a stand against British rule and fight for their independence, even if it meant risking their lives. He declared, "I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
Henry's words were influential in rallying the colonists to take up arms against the British. They inspired a sense of patriotism and a willingness to fight for what they believed in, and helped to spark the American Revolution.
However, the phrase "give me freedom or give me death" has also been invoked in other contexts, including the civil rights movement and other struggles for freedom and justice. It reflects the belief that freedom is a fundamental right that is worth fighting for, even at the cost of one's own life.
In a world where freedom is often threatened or denied, the phrase "give me freedom or give me death" serves as a reminder of the importance of standing up for what we believe in and fighting for our rights. It is a powerful expression of the human spirit and the desire for liberty and self-determination.
Trump posts angry Thanksgiving message: ‘Give me freedom or give me death’
What is it that gentlemen wish? Without doing so he is lost and either freezes or runs. This widespread obsession with making money is what we have to represent social freedom created by the masculine. The men who know that women enjoy sex as much as they do and celebrate them for it.

Lloyd George nor any statesman, no, nor any member of parliament, ever thought it was necessary to mention the subject of woman suffrage at all. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. This is no time for ceremony. He has at least 100 guns, many of them AR style and tens of thousands of rounds of ammo and he told me that he is ready to defend his family and country. I have been reading a great many articles by very profound thinkers lately, and I see that somehow or other when you get men writing about them, even the best of men, they do evade the real issue, and that is, the status of women.
It is only people who feel an intolerable sense of oppression who would adopt a means of that kind. Now, because those authorities were created by people to protect their liberty, so they should always try to protect it but should never try to abolish it. The Bible tells us not to worry and that it is a sin to do so. Yet the fall out of the lack of rites of passage, the result of the masculine not having a safe place to express their repressed true nature is shown in our horrendous male suicide rates not seen in traditional tribal cultures , depression, domestic violence, and high incidents worldwide of My lack of safety as a woman in this world is not.

George Washington: A Life. Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? That brings me to an explanation of these methods that you have not been able to understand. See If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. Likewise, Henry utilizes an adjustment of the volume of his voice in his video discourse to engage the feelings of his kindred representatives.

This explanation of how Mary loved Mr. I come after having been four times imprisoned under the "Cat and Mouse Act", probably going back to be rearrested as soon as I set my foot on British soil. It does not matter to the practical suffragist whether she alienates sympathy that was never of any use to her. By custom, Henry addressed himself to the Convention's president, Peyton Randolph of Williamsburg. This desire to be free is simply part of human nature.
The Costa Rica News Give me freedom. Or give me death.
A number of the guards came out to see the kind of woman it was who had broken their windows, and they saw there a quiet little woman. Now, that was done in England, and the government thought they had crushed us. If you really want your golf links spared you had better intimate to Mr. They are sent over to bind and rivet upon us those chains which the British ministry have been so long forging. They would have to choose; they would have to make a choice of two evils: they would either have to submit indefinitely to an unjust state of affairs, or they would have to rise up and adopt some of the antiquated means by which men in the past got their grievances remedied. Shall we try argument? We need you to rise and take a stand. It was thirty years ago in England that a splendid woman named Josephine Butler fought to establish an equal moral code for both sexes.
That war was fought ostensibly to get equal rights for all whites in South Africa. It always has been so. As a country we continue to value this cry for liberty as a fundamental value, but this same liberty was not given to women after the revolution, or centuries to come. That is the way in which we women of England are doing. Despite the fact that the men chasing her wanted to capture her, she made the decision to die instead, making her last act one of total autonomy. The grievances of those who have got power, the influence of those who have got power commands a great deal of attention; but the wrongs and the grievances of those people who have no power at all are apt to be absolutely ignored. At the present time there are women lying at death's door, recovering enough strength to undergo operations, who have had both systems applied to them, and have not given in and won't give in, and who will be prepared, as soon as they get up from their sick beds, to go on as before.
These are the implements of war and subjugation; the last arguments to which kings resort. But let the men of Hartford imagine that they were not in the position of being voters at all, that they were governed without their consent being obtained, that the legislature turned an absolutely deaf ear to their demands, what would the men of Hartford do then? I am not going to tell you how it was done. We have tried, we women, for generations to undo some of this evil; we have had our rescue societies; we have made all kinds of efforts; we have taken the poor unfortunate children who have been the outcome of this unequal code of morals between men and women, and what has happened? This is characterized as getting support from the crowd by showing solid believability to the speaker Merriam-Webster. As she nears her daughter in Virginia, she is caught impersonating a white man, and her chase comes to a dramatic end: On either hand, far down below, rolled the deep and foamy waters of the Potomac, and before and behind the rapidly approaching step and noisy voiced of pursuers, show how vain would be any further effort for freedom. I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

Now, I want to come back to the point where I said, if the men of Hartford had a grievance and had no vote to get their redress, if they felt that grievance sufficiently, they would be forced to adopt other methods. Well, in our civil war people have suffered, but you cannot make omelets without breaking eggs; you cannot have civil war without damage to something.
I dare say you have followed with considerable interest the story of how the Chinese revolutionary, Sun Yat-sen, conducted the Chinese revolution from England. Now that is all done away with and the foremost medical men and the foremost scientists are agreeing with the women; they are agreeing with the women that it is quite possible, and it is necessary for the sake of the race itself, that this equal moral code shall be established. I ask American men in this meeting, what would you say if in your state you were faced with that alternative, that you must either kill them or give them their citizenship - women, many of whom you respect, women whom you know have lived useful lives, women whom you know, even If you do not know them personally, are animated with the highest motives, women who are in pursuit of liberty and the power to do useful public service? Is it that insidious smile with which our petition has been lately received? Has Great Britain any enemy, in this quarter of the world, to call for all this accumulation of navies and armies? Now, the situation today then is, that home rule for Ireland is to take effect early next year, or in the course of next year. I have seen men smile when they heard the words "hunger strike", and yet I think there are very few men today who would be prepared to adopt a "hunger strike" for any cause. She happened to be an actress, a woman who had come into our militant movement because she knew of the difficulties and dangers and temptations of the actress's life, of how badly paid she is, what her private sorrows are and her difficulties, and so she had come into the militant movement to get votes for actresses as quickly as possible, so that through the vote they could secure better conditions. I am not only here as a soldier temporarily absent from the field at battle; I am here - and that, I think, is the strangest part of my coming - I am here as a person who, according to the law courts of my country, it has been decided, is of no value to the community at all: and I am adjudged because of my life to be a dangerous person, under sentence of penal servitude in a convict prison. We wear no mark; we belong to every class; we permeate every class of the community from the highest to the lowest; and so you see in the woman's civil war the dear men of my country are discovering it is absolutely impossible to deal with it: you cannot locate it, and you cannot stop it.
