Quotation: "If the American people ever allow
private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then
by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will
deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the
continent their Fathers conquered...I believe that banking institutions are more
dangerous to our liberties than standing armies... The issuing power should be
taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly
belongs."
