"All see, and most admire, the glare which hovers
round the external trappings of elevated office.
To me there is nothing in it, beyond the lustre which may be reflected
from its connection with a power of promoting human felicity." | by: | George Washington
(1732-1799) Founding Father, 1st US President, 'Father of the Country' |
