WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/adams-john/65786/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>John Adams</b></a></p><blockquote>Human nature with all its infirmities and depravation is still capable of great things. It is capable of attaining to degrees of wisdom and of goodness, which, we have reason to believe, appear respectable in the estimation of superior intelligences. Education makes a greater difference between man and man, than nature has made between man and brute. The virtues and powers to which men may be trained, by early education and constant discipline, are truly sublime and astonishing.</blockquote><p><b>John Adams</b> (1735-1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797-1801)<br>Letter (1775-10-29) to Abigail Adams</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/adams-john/65786/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wist.info/adams-john/65786/</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=johnadams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>johnadams</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=contemplation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>contemplation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=discipline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>discipline</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=excellence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>excellence</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=humannature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>humannature</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=humanity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>humanity</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=study" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>study</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=wisdom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wisdom</span></a></p>
