Pagan symbols, a headless corpses, Hallowe'en—is it just me, or is something other-worldly going on here?
[enters offscreen] That sounds like our department. [cuts to show Abbie Mills and Ichabod Crane standing at the door]
Benjamin Franklin invented Sex on the Beach?
He called it Fondle in the Forest, but…

NHNathan Hale
I only regret that I have but one life to give for my country.
Final words before being hanged by the British (22 September 1776).
The actual final words of Hale, according to the account by William Hull based on reports by British Captain John Montresor, were:
I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.1
Another early variant of his last words, as reported in the Independent Chronicle and the Universal Advertiser (17 May 1781), were:
I am so satisfied with the cause in which I have engaged, that my only regret is, that I have not more lives than one to offer in its service.2
[to an agent holding Crane captive] Your brogues are loosening. [pauses] Your shoes are untied. [knocks out said agent when said agent looks down] Oldest trick in the book. And that's coming from me.
[pointing to the Jefferson Memorial] But, this fellow back here, Thomas Jefferson, once said something that I think of often: he said, "I like the dreams of the future better than the histories of the past."
The actual Jefferson quote, from a letter to John Adams dated 1 August 1816, reads:
I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.3

In a vote between the lesser of two evils, I choose not to vote at all.
So, when Washington said "these are the times that try men's souls," he was being literal.
The quote actually comes from Thomas Paine. It was written 19 December 1776 and published in The Crisis No. I on 23 December 1776.
So, Washington sent me to fight the Horseman, knowing it would mean my death.
Great stone, I call upon your Protean power.
I marvel at these wondrous items: dolls that speak…robots that transform…putty that's…is silly. In my day, all we had to entertain ourselves was a wooden hoop and a stick. And woe the day the stick broke.
