No. It was Patrick Henry on March 23, 1775, who said " Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

No, that quote was by Patrick Henry. It was part of a speech given in favor of creating the Declaration of Independence. "I know not what course others will take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."

No. Patrick Henry of Virginia famously uttered that line.

"Liberty or Death" has become the national motto of the Republic of Greece (although, they say it in Greek: eleftheria i thanatos / Ελευθερία ή θάνατος)

It wasn't a president. It was a Patriot named Patrick Henry.
