From “The Human Condition: A User’s Manual,” by Arnold Kunst
4 July
“All honor to Jefferson--to the man who, in the concrete
pressure of a struggle for national independence by a single people, had the
coolness, forecast, and capacity to introduce into a merely revolutionary
document, an abstract truth, applicable to all men and all times, and so to
embalm it there, that to-day, and in all coming days, it shall be a rebuke and
a stumbling-block to the very harbingers of re-appearing tyranny and
oppression.” - Abraham Lincoln
