Thomas Paine' Common Sense (1) In the following pages I offer more than simple facts, Plain argume and common sense…I have heard it asserted (claimed] by some that, as America has flourished under her former connection with Great Britain, the same connection is necessary towards her future happiness, and will always have the same effect. Nothing can be more fallacious [untrue] than this kind of argument. “We may as well assert that, because a child has thrived upon milk, it is never to have meat, or that the first twerry
years of our lives is to become a precedent [model) for the next
twenty.” But even this is admitting more than is true. For I answer
roundly that America would have flourished as much, and probably much more, had no European power taken any notice of her. The
commerce by which she hath enriched herself are the necessaries of life, and will always have a market while eating is the
custom of Europe.
