Agitations of American revolutionary leader Samuel Adams spurred Bostonians toward rebellion against British occupation and rule; he, a member of the first and second Continental congresses, signed the Declaration of Independence, and served as governor of Massachusetts from 1794 to 1797.

People came to hold this colonial political philosopher of the movement among the Founding Fathers of the United States. They count this second cousin to John Adams, later president of United States, among the architects of the principles of republicanism that shaped the culture.

Quotes by Samuel Adams (?)

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
― Samuel Adams

“It does not take a majority to prevail ... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.”
