(Original engl.: "I too have been a close observer of the doings of the Bank of the United States. I have had men watching you for a long time, and am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the Bank…You are a den of vipers and thieves. I have determined to rout you out and, by the Eternal, I will rout you out.") - zitiert aus dem Original Transkript "the original minutes of the Philadelphia committee of citizens sent to meet with President Jackson", February 1834, in: Andrew Jackson and the Bank of the United States]] (1928) by Stan V.
