"From my earliest recollection, I date the entertainment……" — Frederick Douglass

From my earliest recollection, I date the entertainment of a deep conviction… - Frederick Douglass
"From my earliest recollection, I date the entertainment of a deep conviction that slavery would not always be able to hold me within its foul embrace; and in the darkest hours of my career in slavery, this living word of faith and spirit of hope departed not from me, but remained like ministering angels to cheer me through the gloom. This good spirit was from God, and to him I offer thanksgiving and praise."
