General information
Quotes posted here are sourced and dated.
These quotes are mostly selected from the following sources:
the writings and correspondence of the framers of the Constitution,
the library of Thomas Jefferson,
the works referenced by John Adams in his work " A Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America", and
the syllabus for the Moral Philosophy course which Princeton law students completed from 1768 - 1794.
Note: Almost half of the delegates at the Constitutional Convention graduated from Princeton. James Madison, the author of the first amendment, was a graduate of Princeton University. Dr. John Witherspoon, the only minister among the delegates to the Constitutional Convention of 1787, taught Moral Philosophy at Princeton during this period.
Authors from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries which would have likely influenced the framer's and the first generation of American's views on salvation, universalism, tolerance, and conscience are also periodically selected for posting.
