George Washington:
(Westmoreland County (Virginia), 22 February 1732 – Mount Vernon (Virginia), 14 December 1799)
General, commander-in-chief of the colonies in the American War of Independence and the first president of the United States from 1789 to 1797.
Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth.
If Freedom of Speech is taken Away, Then Dumb and Silent We May be Led, like Sheep to the Slaughter.
Arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness.
