"I felt invincible. My strength was that of a giant. God was certainly standing by me. I smashed five saloons with rocks before I ever took a hatchet."
— Carrie Nation
"'Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou nor thy sons with thee least ye shall die. Look not thou upon the wine when it is red and when it bringeth his color in the cup when it moveth itself aright. At the last, it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder.' Now folks, that's from the Good Book. But in this here town, it's 5 cents a glass. Five cents a glass. Does anyone really think that that is the price of a drink? The price of a drink - let him decide who has lost his courage and his pride who lies a groveling heap of clay not far removed..."
— Rev. Wainscoat, The Wild Bunch
"Stand up for prohibition
Ye patriots of the land
For ye who love your country
Against saloons should stand
Be bold against this traffic
Your country's greatest foe
Let word and deed and ballot
Proclaim that saloons must go."
