Question

Thomas Paine wrote The Crisis as inspiration for George Washington and the Continental Army when they were feeling great despair and that defeat was near.
“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 his country but he that stands it NOW, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny…. is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.”
