Extract from Thomas Jefferson to Maria Jefferson Eppes
Philadelphia Jan. 1. 99. |
the circle of our nearest connections is the only one in which a faithful and lasting affection can be found, one which will adhere to us under all changes & chances. it is therefore the only soil on which it is worthwhile to bestow much culture.
