Virtue....

"It is certainly true that a popular government cannot flourish without virtue in the people."

(letter to Colonel Martin Pickett, 5 March 1786)

Aye, Richard, I'll agree with you on that. However, I hold that it is even more hard to flourish without there being virtue in the government!
