The Philosophy of Paine (1925)
Context: The memory of Tom Paine will outlive all this. No man who helped to lay the foundations of our liberty — who stepped forth as the champion of so difficult a cause — can be permanently obscured by such attacks. Tom Paine should be read by his countrymen. I commend his fame to their hands.
“I never tire of reading Tom Paine.”
As quoted in A Literary History of the American People (1931) by Charles Angoff, p. 270
