Quote of the day II--from the same earlier article

"... from Thomas Jefferson, from a letter to John Adams: 'Yes, we did produce a near-perfect republic. But will they keep it? Or will they, in the enjoyment of plenty, lose the memory of freedom? Material abundance without character is the path of destruction.'"  --Dr. Jean Houston
