“We should never despair, our situation before has been unpromising and has changed for the better, so I trust, it will again. If new difficulties arise, we must only put forth new exertions and proportion our efforts to the exigency of the times." - George Washington, letter to Philip Schuyler, 1777 (Thanks to Patriot Post.)
