Last John Adams quote in final episode


I thought this was a very interesting line:

Oh posterity, you will never know how much it cost us to preserve your freedom. I hope that you will make a good use of it, for if you do not, I shall repent in Heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.


So, what is your take? Should John Adams be repenting about the course of America right about now?

~After enjoying that movie, I figured I'd drop by IMDB to read about all of its problems.
