The 7 Most Badass Founding Fathers
« on: July 05, 2015, 01:51:58 am »
Recommended reading. Short biographies and commentary on 7 of our greatest Founding Fathers. That such men, along with their colleagues, came together at the same time and same place in history is evidence of God's hand in the creation of this nation.

“No taxation without representation” was the unifying theme behind much of Adams’s rhetoric, including this line from his speech protesting the Sugar Act:


For if our Trade may be taxed, why not our Lands? Why not the Produce of our Lands & everything we possess or make use of?

John Roberts, call your office.
Best line of the whole piece.

There was never a doubt about it in my mind!
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
