"All great and honorable actions are accompanied with great difficulties; and must be both enterprised and overcome with answerable courages. It was granted that the dangers were great, but not desperate; the difficulties were many, but not invincible. For though there were many of them likely, yet they were not certain. It might be that sundry of the things feared might never befall; others, by provident care and the use of good means, might in a great measure be prevented; and all of them, through the help of God, by fortitude and patience, might either be borne or overcome."
-Governor William Bradford
