"It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.”
“It is better to be alone than in bad company.”
“If freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.”
“My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw." (George Washington)
George Washington was America’s foremost political leader, military general, statesman, and Founding Father who served as the first president of the United States from 1789 to 1797. He commanded Patriot forces in the new nation's vital American Revolutionary War and led them to victory over the British. Washington also presided at the Constitutional Convention of 1787, which established the new federal government. For his manifold leadership during the American Revolution, for all of this and more he has been called the "Father of His Country". This is his story.
