Paul Revere quotes:

In the Fall of 1774 & Winter of 1775, I was one of upwards of thirty, chiefly mechanics, who formed ourselves into a committee for the purpose of watching the movements of the British soldiers, and gaining every intelligence of the movements of the Tories.

The British are coming. One if by land, two if by sea.

In Medford, I awaked the Captain of the Minute Men; & after that, I alarmed almost every house, till I got to Lexington.

1 if by land, 2 if by sea.

To arms, to arms! The British are coming, the British are coming!

No matter what you do, you'll never run away from you.

If the British march By land or sea from the town to-night, Hang a lantern aloft in the belfry-arch Of the North-Church-tower, as a signal-light,-- One if by land, and two if by sea; And I on the opposite shore will be, Ready to ride and spread the alarm Through every Middlesex village and farm, For the country-folk to be up and to arm.

There's a time for casting silver; a time for casting cannon. If that isn't in the red, it should be!
