How different (…) America! It is not men who rule but the law(…) .people respecting the law. Public office is a place ofhonor (…) field of patriotic devotion. Governments (…) not(…) arrogant (…) .masters of the people, but (…) itsfaithful servants. A public officer (…) has doubly thecharacter of a citizen, by sharing in and executing the people’swill (…) because the civilization of America is founded uponthe principle of democracy. In Maryland, the governor introducedme to the legislature. In Pennsylvania, the chief magistrate wasthe organ of a common welcome of the legislature and citizens. InMassachusetts he took the lead (…) in recommending myprinciples to the legislature, and in Ohio, the chief magistrate,by accepting the presidency of the Association of the Friends ofHungary, became generally the executive of the people’s (…)sympathy, which so magnanimously responded (…) in thelegislature.

Neutrality, as a rule (…) is impossible to a great power. Onlysmall countries, as Switzerland or Belgium, can exist upon thebasis of neutrality (…) .Great powers can never play withimpunity the part of no power at all (…) (it) (…) meansindifference (…) to the condition of the world (…) a chancegiven to foreign powers to regulate. Remember the Sibyllinebooks. The first three were burned when you silently let Russianinterference (…) in Hungary (…) and did not give us (…)recognition. Six books remain (…) do not allow (…) (them)(…) to burn. The Anglo-Saxon race was the kernel which gatheredthis glorious fruit, your republic. Every other nationality isoppressed (…) .You, the younger brother, are entirely free,because republican (…) The older brother are monarchical butthey have a constitution (…) and many institutions (…) dearto free men. The inviolability of property (…) of person is anEnglish principles. (…) from the mother country you obtainedcertain of your principles of liberty (…). For at leastthirty-seven years, almost every Christian nation has shared thegreat fault of not caring much about (…) foreign policy (…).The slightest national interest was discussed publicly (…) butas to (…) relations to the world (…) secret diplomacy, afatality (…) stepped in, and the nations had to accept theconsequences (…) though subsequently reproved (…).

St. Louis MO, Public Meeting March 14, 1852.
When the struggle is about principles, indifference is suicide(…) .Indifference (…) is passive submission (…) almostequivalent to an alliance with the despot. (…) He, who is notfor freedom, is against freedom. There is no third choice ! (…)it is a preeminent glory of my country (…) the principle ofreligious liberty (…) ,The Austrian dynasty (…) continuallyencroaching upon (…) the rights of Protestantism, who werethose who struggled in the first rank for our rights ? Our RomanCatholic countrymen ! It (…) was fully appreciated by theHungarian Protestants.

Jackson MS, to Gov. Henry Foote March 16, 1852.
One anxiety has weighed (on me) ..since I have been in the United States, and that is (…) I lose the opportunity to say to you..how thankful I feel for the important part you have (played) in my liberation from captivity. I hope to God, you will never have reason to regret what you have done for me. Providential in the fact and in time of intercession in my behalf.
