Become.

Peale, Thomas Jefferson, 1791


The path we have to pursue is so quiet that we have nothing scarcely to propose to our legislature. A noiseless course not meddling with the affairs of others, unattractive of notice, is a market that society is going on in happiness. If we can but prevent the government from wasting the labours of the people, under the pretence of taking care of them, they must become happy.

Thomas Jefferson
