This tumblr's title should not be taken as meaning there will be a new quote every day. When there is one, it's the quote of the day. Sorry (to the rest of the world) about it being so americentric, if that's a word. I'm just tired of the myth promotion and lies about America's Founding Fathers by ignorant people. Some quotes may not be exactly from Founding Fathers. I may throw in some Lincoln. It's my blog.

Ask me anything
There is no law, either in nature, or of the civil society in which we live, that obliges us to purchase, and make use of the products and manufactures of a different land, or people. It is indeed a dictate of humanity to contribute to the support and happiness of our fellow creatures and more especially those who are allied to us by the ties of blood, interest, and mutual protection; but humanity does not require us to sacrifice our own security and welfare to the convenience, or advantage of others.
Alexander Hamilton, A Full Vindication of the Measures of the Congress, 1774
