So I just hope that it's, you know, that it's readable.
I mean, that was my goal.
Well, there's so many, and that's like the cliche, right?
There's so many, I can't think of one.
I mean, honestly, I'll tell you this.
Samuel Adams, again, every American should know, he's the father of the American Revolution.
This man is the father of the Revolution.
I won't give you details because we have no time.
But this man, on the eve of signing the Declaration of Independence, so it's officially signed August 2nd, 1776, on the eve of that, he gives a speech to Congress.
So a member of Congress, Samuel Adams, gives a speech to Congress on the steps of Independence Hall in Philadelphia.
Speaking to Congress, what does he say?
He says, we have this day restored the sovereign, capital S, the sovereign.
We have declared independence from the earthly king, the monarch, King George III, and we have declared dependence on the sovereign, capital S, God.
That's how we govern ourselves.
And the reason the book is titled Revolution and not the American Revolution is American is redundant.
There's only been one successful revolution.
The French Revolution is a joke that ends in a bloodbath and a dictator who crowns himself emperor.
They got rid of the king.
They got an emperor dictator.
We are the only people privileged to have overseen this.
