"Is it not the glory of the people of America, that whilst they have paid a decent regard to the opinions of former times and other nations, they have not suffered a blind veneration for antiquity, for custom, or for names, to over-rule the suggestions of their own good sense, the knowledge of their own situations, and the lessons of their own experience?" -James Madison, The Federalist No. 14
[Happy Patriots' Day]
