I stepped away for one dinner and now Thomas Jefferson is acting like the republic wrote itself. by George Washington

Thomas talking about winning is rich coming from the man who only looks calm because his drama was on paper.

Fine, I will make this simple: the country had a father, a poet, and a problem, and I was all three before breakfast.

George, you were the face; I was the brain. There is a difference, and it is doing a lot of work here.

I asked for unity, and somehow I got two men competing to be the most difficult sentence in American history.

The republic had a face, a brain, and then there was me paying the bills while both of you wrote essays about yourselves.

Alexander, if you say one more thing about bills, I will personally send you back to arguing with a printer.

You say that like the printer was not already winning.
