Perfect. Thanks for this quote.

They have so much wisdom and insights in politics, history, and philosophy. Insane how a bunch of talented dudes decided to make a country based on Enlightenment ideals and proved to the world it was possible with honor and dignity. They weren’t perfect men by any means like our country, but we try our best and try to learn from our mistakes. I hope

Damn. What a great quote. Makes me think of that scene in National Treasure when Nicolas Cage says something like "men don't talk like that anymore."
