RESIST MUCH, OBEY LITTLE!

Walt Whitman (1819–1892). Leaves of Grass. 1900.

173. Walt Whitman’s Caution

TO The States, or any one of them, or any city of The States, Resist much, obey little; Once unquestioning obedience, once fully enslaved; Once fully enslaved, no nation, state, city, of this earth, ever afterward resumes its liberty.
