301. ALLIANCE, Divorce from all.—
As
to everything except commerce, we ought to
divorce ourselves from them all. But this
system would require time, temper, wisdom,
and occasional sacrifice of interest; and how
far all of these will be ours, our children May
see, but we shall not. The passions are too
high at present, to be cooled in our day.—
To Edward Rutledge. Washington ed. iv, 191.
