    “And therefore, all friends and people, pluck down your images; I say, pluck them out of your houses, walls, and signs, or other places, that none of you be found imitators of his Creator, whom you should serve and worship; and not observe the idle lazy mind, that would go invent and make things like a Creator and Maker. . . .”

    —George Fox, ca. 1670

    Quakers are not big on statues. I bet old William would be ok with it.
