575. ARTS, Enthusiasm for the.—
I am
an enthusiast on the subject of the arts. But
it is an enthusiasm of which I am not
ashamed, as its object is to improve the taste
of my countrymen, to increase their reputation,
to reconcile to them the respect of the
world, and procure them its praise.—
To James Madison. Washington ed. i, 433.

1785)
