Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, Vol. 10: Library Edition, Containing His Autobiography, Notes on Virginia, Parliamentary Manual, Official Papers, Messages and Addresses, and Other Writings, Official and Private, Now Collected and Published in Their Entirety for the First Time; Including All of T Of all America´s great ones none presents so many-sided a character as Thomas Jefferson. Nothing that came under his observation appears to have been too great, or too lowly, to awaken his interest. To have awakened his interest in anything meant that as perfect an understanding of that thing as was possible would be stored away in his all-receptive mind to await the occasion when the knowledge acquired might be used in some scheme for the promotion of the welfare of humanity. At the age of thirty-two, when he took his seat as a delegate to Congress, he was already famous for his versatility, being credited with competency to "calculate an eclipse, survey an estate, tie an artery, plan an edifice, try a cause, break a horse, dance a minuet and play the violin." Undoubtedly it was because of his insatiable thirst for knowledge and capacity to acquire it that he has been so much accused by his foes of inconsistency, with the implication, of course, that inconsistency and unreliability are synonymous.
