Additional quotes by Owen Lovejoy

I always defended it and always will, whether it be against the Democrats who pervert it, or the dis-unionists who trample on it.

I love the Constitution. It is enshrined in my heart. I love it better than any dozen Democrats in the land do tonight.

I am speaking in dead earnest, before God. God's own truth. It has the violence of robbery, the blood and cruelty of piracy. It has the offensive and brutal lusts of polygamy, all combined and concentrated in itself, with aggravations that neither one of these crimes ever knew or dreamed of.
