Words of wisdom

I was perusing the blog, A Circle of Quiet, and came across this quote. I think it is a great quote by one of my favorite founding fathers.

"I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce, and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study paintings, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain."
~John Adams

A Circle of Quiet was one of the first blogs I began reading. :)
