James Madison
"It is impossible for the pious man not to recognize in it (the writing of the Constitution) a finger of that Almighty Hand which was so frequently extended to us in the critical stages of the evolution."
James Madison
"No people ought to feel greater obligations
to celebrate the goodness of the Great Disposer of
events and the Destiny of Nations than the people
of the United States…And to the same Divine
Author of every good and perfect gift we are indebted
for all those privileges and advantages, religious
as well as civil, which are so richly enjoyed in this
favored land."
