More from our First President

Interesting quotes from George Washington that apply today. Little did he know.

In 1789 he described how the Constitution with all of its wisdom, could ultimately come to naught by the depravity of the people and those who govern them, since the Constitution in the hands of a corrupt people was a mere "wall of words" or a "mound of parchment".

Since Washington believed in God and Divine Providence, he believe if the United States moved away from God, American could not expect the continuing smiles of Heaven if the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself ordained were disregarded.
