Today's Founders Quote: Smiles of Heaven


"There exists in the economy and course of nature an indissoluble union between virtue and happiness … we ought to be no less persuaded that the propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained."

- George Washington's 1789 Inaugural Address


   Yes, there is a direct correlation between Virtue and Happiness.  A virtuous person never has to worry about his conscience, which most directly leads to happiness.  We're not sure of her virtue, but poker player Katie Porrello makes us happy.  We imagine it'd be hard to notice your Royal Flush with her at the table.. Lokks like she's holding Two of a Kind!
