Quote by John Adams
Yesterday the greatest question was decided which ever was debated

Yesterday the greatest question was decided which ever was debated in America; and a greater perhaps never was, nor will be, decided among men. A resolution was passed without one dissenting colony, that these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States. – John Adams

Other quotes by John Adams
