More from George Washington
A nation that values its freedom must also value its education and its institutions.
Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none.
Arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness.
Let us never forget that government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force.
