Don't tread on me

I'm watching HBO's miniseries John Adams. George Washington looks weirdly like Bill Clinton.

It's a bit slow in places, especially the first episode where nothing really happens for like eight minutes, but the dialogue is a joy to hear. Every episode there are certain phrases that ring in my ear and I have to hit the rewind and listen again. I thought the writer was spot on when Mrs. Adams says something like "Sometimes I fear this war will never end. Or begin."

Brilliant.
