"Objects of the most stupendous magnitude, measures in which the lives and liberties of millions, born and unborn are most essentially interested, are now before us. We are in the very midst of revolution, the most complete, unexpected, and remarkable of any in the history of the world."
- John Adams -
(an excerpt from his final, passionate speech given July 1, 1776 . . . the day before the signing of the Declaration of Independence)
