" We are entered into a covenant [contract] with Him [God] for this work...[The Puritans must]...hold each other in brotherly affection...labor and suffer together, always having before our eyes our commission and common work, our community as members of the same body...[If this occurs]...The Lord will make our name a praise and glory, so that men shall say of succeeding plantations: "The Lord will make it like that of New England." For we must consider that we shall be like a City upon a Hill; the eyes of all people are on us."
-John Winthrop
