I was wondering whether they’d use this John Adams quote.

I’m still stuck on tonight’s song — sometimes I know at first light; sometimes I have no idea at all — but this bit from (I guess) the John Adams miniseries is excellent. Both because it’s one of the best things he ever said, and because it was presented as a warning that absolutely went over the head of most of the people who heard it.

Yes, I must watch that miniseries.
