奥里森·斯威特·马登《向前进》· Pushing to the Front · 领导
Garrison and his coadjutors were denounced everywhere. A clergyman named Lovejoy was killed by a mob in Illinois for espousing the cause, while defending his printing-press, and in the old "Cradle of American Liberty" the wealth, power, and culture of Massachusetts arrayed itself against the "Abolitionists" so outrageously, that a mere spectator, a young lawyer of great promise, asked to be lifted upon the high platform, and replied in such a speech as was never before heard in Faneuil Hall. "When I heard the gentleman lay down the principles which place the murderers of Lovejoy at Alton side by side with Otis and Hancock, with Quincy and Adams," said Wendell Phillips, pointing to their portraits on the walls. "I thought those pictured lips would have broken into voice to rebuke the recreant American, the slanderer of the dead. For the sentiments that he has uttered, on soil consecrated by the prayers of the Puritans and the blood of patriots. the earth should have yawned and swallowed him up."

白话
加里森和他的同伴到处被谴责。一位名叫洛夫乔伊的牧师因支持废奴，在伊利诺伊州为保护印刷机被暴徒杀害。在“美国自由的摇篮”波士顿，马萨诸塞州的财富、权力和文化界如此蛮横地反对“废奴主义者”，以至于一位旁观的有前途的年轻律师温德尔·菲利普斯被请上高台，发表了一篇法尼尔厅从未有过的演讲。他指着墙上奥蒂斯、汉考克、昆西和亚当斯的画像说：“当我听到那位先生把杀害洛夫乔伊的凶手与这些英雄相提并论时，我以为画中人的嘴唇会开口谴责这个背叛者、死者的诽谤者。因为他说的那些话，在这片被清教徒祈祷和爱国者鲜血圣化的土地上，大地都该裂开吞了他。”这告诉我们，面对不公，沉默就是纵容，勇敢发声才能唤醒良知。
