By saying the above, Thomas Paine meant that the Patriots need to make a long-term commitment to fight.

Thomas Paine was very important to the American Revolution as he:

  • Authored the pamphlets, "Common Sense" and "The American Crisis" which inspired people to ask for a independence from Britain
  • Advocated for a democratic government

During the American Revolution, Paine cautioned the Patriots to remember that they could only win the war if they were thoroughly dedicated to it.

The text above was him saying that even if fighting the British gets tough, they must persevere as this was the only way they would defeat the British.

We can therefore conclude that Thomas Paine was encouraging the Patriots to make a long term commitment to the Revolution.
