Presidents on Politics – John Quincy Adams

Posterity: you will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

Where annual elections end where slavery begins.

Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.

The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.
