But then I wonder, is the length of a friendship measured by the time you are given to spend within each others' company?

Because if it's the latter, I have a thousand friends!”

She made nineteen dangerous trips back and forth, often disguised, escorting more than three hundred slaves to freedom, always carrying a pistol, telling the fugitives, "You'll be free or die." She expressed her philosophy: "There was one of two things I had a right to, liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other; for no man should take me alive. . .”
