“
I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.
— Nathan Hale
military officer, spy
1755 – 1776
I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.
I greatly fear some of America's greatest and most dangerous enemies are such as think themselves her best friends.
I wish to be useful, and every kind of service necessary to the public good becomes honorable by being necessary. If the exigencies of my country demand a peculiar service, its claim to perform that service are imperious.
I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.
I greatly fear some of America's greatest and most dangerous enemies are such as think themselves her best friends.
