When a man unprincipled in private life desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents, having the advantage of military habits -- despotic in his ordinary demeanor -- known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty -- when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity -- to join in the cry of danger to liberty -- to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government and bringing it under suspicion -- to flatter and fall in with all the non sense of the zealots of the day -- It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may "ride the storm and direct the whirlwind."

Men give me credit for some genius. All the genius I have lies in this; when I have a subject in hand, I study it profoundly. Day and night it is before me. My mind becomes pervaded with it. Then the effort that I have made is what people are pleased to call the fruit of genius. It is the fruit of labor and thought.

The Sinking Fund Commission has come up several times. Historians & legal scholars regard it as the nation’s first #independent agency. Created in 1790 by the first #Congress, the 5-member commission approved payments to settle America’s Revolutionary War debts.
The commission’s structure was proposed by #AlexanderHamilton, who saw it as a way to insulate members from #political pressures.

"It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force."
#AlexanderHamilton from the first paragraph of #TheFederalistPapers
can the #Enlightenment ideas be more than theory?

A quotation from Alexander Hamilton
The sacred rights of mankind are not to be rummaged for among old parchments or musty records. They are written, as with a sunbeam, in the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of the Divinity itself, and can never be erased or obscured by mortal power.
Alexander Hamilton (1757-1804) American statesman, author

A quotation from Alexander Hamilton
The truth unquestionably is, that the only path to a subversion of the republican system of the Country is, by flattering the prejudices of the people, and exciting their jealousies and apprehensions, to throw affairs into confusion, and bring on civil commotion. Tired at length of anarchy, or want of government, they may take shelter in the arms of monarchy for repose and security.

[A supermajority congress would serve] to embarrass the administration, to destroy the energy of the government, and to substitute the pleasure, caprice, or artifices of an insignificant, turbulent, or corrupt junta, to the regular deliberations and decisions of a respectable majority.

Ron Chernow: Alexander Hamilton
O kalibrze Hamilton świadczy fakt, że chłopak urodzony i wychowany na karaibskiej wyspie Nevis, gdzie na każdego białego kolonistę przypadało czterech czarnych niewolników, a nawet jego skromnie żyjąca rodzina miała kilkoro, był od wczesnej dorosłości zawziętym abolicjonistą, wolnym od rasowych uprzedzeń swojej epoki.

This is an #IpswichLace replica pattern. These were found in #AlexanderHamilton's papers and patterns recreated from original samples of ~1790 #American #BobbinLace from #Massachusetts.
