QUOTE(S) OF THE DAY “If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.” – George Washington “I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.” – Thomas Jefferson “I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce, and agriculture, in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain.” – John Adams “My dream is of a place and a time where America will once again be seen as the last best hope of earth.” – Abraham Lincoln “We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.” – Benjamin Franklin VIDEO(S) OF THE DAY SOUSA The Stars and Stripes Forever "The President's Own" U.S. Marine Band Who Won the American Revolution | Crash Course US History #7 Social Studies | Video | PBS LearningMedia This Musician’s Songs Give Powerful Voice to a Language in Crisis At the Smithsonian | Smithsonian Wisconsin artists and arts organizations, do you have video that you’d like us to consider sharing as the Wisconsin Arts News Video of the Day?
