To: Knitting A Conundrum

[N]either the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt.
Samuel Adams, essay in The Public Advertiser, Circa 1749

(note here: manners here doesn’t mean politeness. It means ways of doing things.)
