"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Happy Birthday, Adams

Chappel, Samuel Adams, 1863


While a people retain a just sense of Liberty, the insolence of power will forever be despised.  A virtuous people cannot be subdued; but once they lose their virtue, they will be ready to surrender their liberties.

Samuel Adams, born on this day in 1722
