Toussaint Louverture : (2) " We are free today because we are the stronger; we will be slaves again when the government becomes the stronger. " - Toussaint Louverture " The whites have resolved to destroy our liberty and have therefore brought a force commensurate to their intentions. The Cape, after a proper resistance, has fallen into their hands, but the enemy found only a town and plain in ashes; the forts were blown up, and all was burnt. " - Toussaint Louverture
