Quote

Thomas Jefferson: ["But, Mr. Adams" continues as John Adams is about to hand the quill pen to Jefferson] Mr. Adams, leave me alo-one! John Adams: [the chorus chants in the background; spoken] Mr. Jefferson... Thomas Jefferson: Mr. Adams, I beg of you, I've not seen my wife these past six months. John Adams: "And we solemnly declare that we will preserve our liberties, being with one mind resolved to die free men rather than British slaves." - Thomas Jefferson, "On the Necessity of Taking up Arms", 1775. Magnificent. John Adams: Why, you write 10 times better than any man in Congress, including me. For a man of only 33 years, you possess a happy talent for composition, and a remarkable felicity of expression. Now then, sir: will you be a patriot... or a lover? Thomas Jefferson: A lover.
