Who's Afraid of Dementia Woolf?

Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthy kings. ~ Patrick Henry



AMERICA IS AN ABERRATION. So failure, due to our frailties, will often be our fate. Nevertheless, destiny will always demand our best—and nothing else will do.

“It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force. If there be any truth in the remark, the crisis at which we are arrived may with propriety be regarded as the era in which that decision is to be made; and a wrong election of the part we shall act may, in this view, deserve to be considered as the general misfortune of mankind.” (Alexander Hamilton, The Federalist Papers, No. 1)
