Illiterate America Quotes

“One hundred years before the present government existed, a powerful leader, Sir William Berkeley, governor of Virginia, stated his views in clear, unflinching terms.

For learning has brought disobedience, and heresy, and sects into the world, and printing hath divulged them...God save us from both!”
