Nate, Mark & Steve:

Perhaps you should read Jefferson’s original Declaration of Independence where he condemns the slave trade and institution. I am not defending slavery, however, it is not fair to sell short any of these men because they happened to own slaves(yes Washington did too, as did many of the Founding fathers and even Ulysses Grant 60 years later than Jefferson), as it was the only way at the time to produce enough food for people to eat.

“Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear”

- Thomas Jefferson

I just discovered this amazing site! Every American guy needs to read this site, lest they become lost in today’s increasingly gender-neutral and homogeneous society.

Splendid stuff you have here!

Were these ordinary men who stepped up during extraordinary times or were they exceptional men who came together at the right place during just the right time in history?

One of my favorites I learned of a few years ago and a great reminder that these were guys just like us in many ways. Have used it on the golf course myself.

“Shift your fat ass Harry, but slowly or you’ll swamp the damned boat.”

George Washington to Henry Knox as he boarded the boat to cross the Delaware and attack the Hessians in Trenton.

fact is, misattributed quotes or not, these are great pieces of manly advice, and if these manly men didn’t say them then they should have…. so stop whining
