What is old shall be new again. Reconstruction delayed but not forgotten.
What is it that hath been? that that shall be: and what is it that hath been done? that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. -- Ecclesiastes 1:9
Again, a new commandment I write unto you, that which is true in him: and also in you: for the darkness is past, and that true light now shineth. -- 1 John 2;8 - 1599 GENEVA
"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--"
