Quote by Daniel Webster
This is a Senate of equals, of men of individual honor and persona

This is a Senate of equals, of men of individual honor and personal character, and of absolute independence. We know no masters, we acknowledge no dictators. This is a hall for mutual consultation and discussion; not an arena for the exhibition of champions. – Daniel Webster
