Chris Lundquist: James

Quotes 

• Henri : Hey, I'm going to help them pull down the statue of King George III!

  James : Henri, stay here. You're nothing but a magnet for trouble. Anywhere you go, bad things happen.

  Henri : Do not.

  Sarah : I think you'd better listen to James.

  Henri : You two are just jealous because I have more fun than you do.

• [men knock down the statue of King George III] 

  Sarah : Of what possible good is a broken statue?

  James : I heard they're taking it up to a cannonball factory in Connecticut.

  Sarah : And why on earth would they go to all their trouble?

  James : General Washington told his staff that he intends to return the led in the statue to the British troops as soon as possible.

  Sarah : Seems pretty boastful. General Washington's been commander in chief of the Continental Army all year and has yet to fight a battle.

  James : I think he'll get his battle soon. A big one.

• James : This has turned into a new kind of war. An American war. General Washington is going to fight a delaying action, hoping to wear down the British while giving himself time to build and train an army.
