Founders' Daily Quote: 23 July 2008

"Without wishing to damp the ardor of curiosity or influence the freedom of inquiry, I will hazard a prediction that, after the most industrious and impartial researchers, the longest liver of you all will find no principles, institutions or systems of education more fit in general to be transmitted to your posterity than those you have received from your ancestors."

--John Adams (letter to the young men of the Philadelphia, 7 May 1798);Reference: The Works of John Adams, C.F. Adams, ed., vol. 9 (188)

In simple English: Whatever is written has already been written. You just didn't pay attention until you read it for yourself! lol

PS. This was written under the assumption that everyone understands that Truth is the same as it was yesterday, today and tomorrow. ;)

May you walk with the LORD always, and when you cannot take another step, may He carry you the rest of the way until you can walk along side Him again.
