“There can be no greater error than to expect, or calculate, upon real favors from nation to nation. It is an illusion which experience must cure, which a just pride ought to discard.“ -- George Washington
As the first president of the United States of America… “I walk on untrodden ground. There is scarcely any part of my conduct which may not hereafter be drawn into precedent.” -- George Washington
“If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.” -- George Washington
