Visit to UMass Amherst

Olivia took me to the 24th floor of the library and we could see her dorm in the background (next to the water towers).

Tristan took the pre-admission tour and learned some things even Olivia didn't know.

Favorite Quotes

Freedom is not the right to do as you please; it is the liberty to do as you ought (unknown)


Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

Martin Luther King, Jr.


Barack Obama is to be sworn in using Lincoln's Bible:

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot keep out trouble by spending more than you earn. You cannot build character and courage by taking man’s initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing what they could and should not do for themselves. . . .

Abraham Lincoln
