More from George Washington
True patriotism is not just a feeling but a commitment to the well-being of our country.
I can not express how greatly affected I am at this new proof of public confidence.
To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace.
Satisfied, therefore, that you have sincerely wished and endeavored to avert war, and exhausted to the last drop the cup of reconciliation, we can with pure hearts appeal to Heaven for the justice of our cause.
