“Jefferson’s vision took in the empowerment of the common people, the many, while Hamilton looked to a state in which an elite, the few, would set policy.”
John Rhodehamel, George Washington: The Wonder of the Age

“Some Englishmen came away from the war with a bitterly gained conviction that the colonials were a despicable people—hardly worthy to call themselves the king’s subjects. Their cowardice in battle was boundless, their greed and dishonesty no less conspicuous. Americans were so wedded to their own little provinces, so jealous of their neighbors, and so addicted to making money that they were incapable of working for the good of the empire as a whole. The various colonies often seemed more enthusiastic about feuding with rivals than fighting the French.”
John Rhodehamel, George Washington: The Wonder of the Age
