Thomas Jefferson said it well: "No government can continue good but under the control of the people; and ... their minds are to be informed by education what is right and what wrong; to be encouraged in habits of virtue and to be deterred from those of vice... These are the inculcations necessary to render the people a sure basis for the structure and order of government." John Adams said it better: "Liberty can no more exist without virtue ... than the body can live and move without a soul." And Thomas Paine said it best: "When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary."
