"If
men through fear, fraud or mistake, should in terms renounce and give
up any essential natural right, the eternal law of reason and the great
end of society, would absolutely vacate such renunciation; the right to
freedom being the gift of God Almighty, it is not in the power of Man to
alienate this gift, and voluntarily become a slave." --John Adams,
Rights of the Colonists, 1772
