John  Adams
“Old minds are like old horses; you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.”
John Adams

Janet Benge
“Having voted for independence, they now needed to discuss and vote on the text of a declaration of independence that Thomas Jefferson had drawn up. The text Jefferson had written was read aloud, and throughout the day the delegates made changes. They deleted about twenty-five percent of the text, thinking it not applicable, or too emotive, or beside the point.”
Janet Benge, John Adams: Independence Forever
