Patrick Henry
I do not know what course others will take but as for me, give me liberty or give me death. Those where the last quotes. That is correct, but it begins, "If this be treason, make the most of it. I know not the course that other might take, but, as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!"
"I know not the course that others might take, but, as for me, give me Liberty or give me death!" He is the one who said that. He went on to be Governor of Virginia during the Revolution.
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!
His famous line was "Give me Liberty or Give me Death!" I hope that helps. :D

Two major quotes are attributed to Patrick Henry:"Caesar had his Brutus; Charles the First his Cromwell; and George the Third ....may he profit by their example. If thisbe treason, make the most of it!"and"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!"The first, when quoted, is often shortened to just "If this be treason, make the most of it!"The second, when quoted, is often shortened to simply "Give me liberty or give me death!"
