Quote context

[...]

- What's the trouble here?

- They're all against me. They're turning back.

- No, you're not! We can't turn back.

- We're blazing a trail that started in England.

- Not even storms of the sea could turn back those first settlers. And they carried it on further. They blazed it on through the wilderness of Kentucky.

- Famine, hunger, not even massacres could stop them.

- And now we've picked up the trail again, and nothing can stop us! Not even the snows of winter nor the peaks of the highest mountains.

- We're building a nation! So we've got to suffer.

- No great trail was ever blazed without hardship.

- And you've gotta fight! That's life. And when you stop fightin', that's death.
