"These are the times that try men's souls." "What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly" "the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph" Those are a few I'm sure about.

Only guess really, but perhaps by island he is referring to Britian and by continent he is referring to North America (as it was known then) and/or Europe.
What role did propaganda play in the Revolution and what is an example?
Propaganda played an enormous role in the war in motivating people to fight. Some examples of this were Thomas Paine's pamphlets: Common Sense and The American Crisis. In the Valley Forge it was extremely cold and patriots were considering leaving the army. Then Thomas Paine wrote The American Crisis, which tells of why the soldiers should fight against the British and all tyranny:These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value.
