Founding Fathers Quotes

All good men wish the entire abolition of slavery, as soon as it can take place with safety to the public, and for the lasting
good of the present wretched race of slaves. The only possible step that could be taken towards it by the convention was to
fix a period after which they should not be imported.
Oliver Ellsworth, The Landholder, December 10, 1787

O, thou art fairer than the evening\'s air
Clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.
-Faustus, 1604

Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can
be counted counts. --Albert Einstein
