The old man was asked, why were these men and boys willing to stand up to the
mightiest army in the world? Was it the taxes on tea and other imports? No, he
said. Was it the thinking from all the great books coming from Europe? No, books
were rare and precious things which most couldn't afford. Then, he was asked again,
WHY? His answer was... "Because they were of a mind to govern us and we were of a
mind to govern ourselves."
