 * "Hawaii is ours; Porto Rico is to be ours; at the prayer of our people Cuba will be ours; in the islands of the East, even to the gates, coaling stations are to be ours at the very least; the flag of a liberal government is to float over the Philippines, and may it be the banner that Taylor unfurled in Texas and Fremont carried to the coast." The March of the Flag speech, September 1898
 * “Would not the people of the Philippines prefer the just, human, civilizing government of this republic to the savage, bloody rule… from which we have saved them?” This quote demonstrates that Beveridge wanted to give the Philippines the government that America had, which was why they should be annexed. He thought the Spanish rule was unjust and cruel.
