John Adams Quotes:
Ocupation: 2nd U.S. President
Life: October 30, 1735 - July 4, 1826
Birthday: October 30
Death: July 4
The whole people must take upon themselves the education of the whole people, and must be willing to bear the expenses of it. There should not be a district of one mile square, without a school in it, not founded by a charitable individual, but maintained at the public expense of the people themselves.
