Extractions: In the year 1877, the signals were given for the rest of the century: the blacks would be put back; the strikes of white workers would not be tolerated; the industrial and political elites of North and South would take hold of the country and organize the greatest march of economic growth in human history. They would do it with the aid of, and at the expense of, black labor, white labor, Chinese labor, European immigrant labor, female labor, rewarding them differently by race, sex, national origin, and social class, in such a way as to create separate levels of oppression-a skillful terracing to stabilize the pyramid of wealth. Between the Civil War and 1900, steam and electricity replaced human muscle, iron replaced wood, and steel replaced iron (before the Bessemer process, iron was hardened into steel at the rate of 3 to 5 tons a day; now the same amount could be processed in 15 minutes). Machines could now drive steel tools. Oil could lubricate machines and light homes, streets, factories. People and goods could move by railroad, propelled by steam along steel rails; by 1900 there were 193,000 miles of railroad. The telephone, the typewriter, and the adding machine speeded up the work of business.

Henry Brooks Adams Quotations
Memorable quotes from the famous historian, teacher, and editor.
http://www.memorablequotations.com/adams2.htm

Extractions: Quotations Chaos often breeds life, when order breeds habit. Philosophy: Unintelligible answers to insoluble problems. As for America, it is the ideal fruit of all your youthful hopes and reforms. Everybody is fairly decent, respectable, domestic, bourgeois, middle-class, and tiresome. There is absolutely nothing to revile except that it's a bore. Practical politics consists in ignoring facts. The press is the hired agent of a monied system, and set up for no other purpose than to tell lies where their interests are involved. One can trust nobody and nothing. Susceptibility to the highest forces is the highest genius. At best, the renewal of broken relations is a nervous matter. Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts. A friend in power is a friend lost. The American President resembles the commander of a ship at sea. He must have a helm to grasp, a course to steer, a port to seek. Power is poison. Its effect on Presidents had always been tragic.

Extractions: Powered by TypePad Main Henry Adams and the Making of America by Garry Wills, published in 2005, is a major reassessment of one of this country's earliest professional historians. Henry Adams came from one of the founding families of this country. John Adams, second President of the United States, was his great-grandfather. John Quincy Adams, sixth President of the United States, was his grandfather. Charles Francis Adams, who was Abraham Lincoln's Minister to Great Britain, was Henry's father. Henry, in fact, served on Minister Adams' staff in that key diplomatic post during the American Civil War- at a point when Great Britain seriously considered intervening in the war on the side of the Confederacy.

Extractions: Henry Adams' letters are among the best in the language. They are, in Alfred Kazin's words, "magnificent, his most spontaneous arid freest literary works." With the completion of this edition, they may well be judged his most significant achievement. "The letters are not a gloss on a life's work; in a real sense they are his life's work' the reviewer for American Literature stated. Mont-Saint-Michel and Chartres At his home on Lafayette Square, across from the White House, he became an informal adviser to statesmen, John Hay and Theodore Roosevelt among them. Out of his friendly association with scientists arid his own study of science came his conviction that the dynamo and radium were bringing a revolution in physics. His germinating ideas about science, technology, and economic power were conveyed in his letters over many years before they were formulated in The Education of Henry Adams , his "Study of Twentieth-Century Multiplicity."

He remains best known, however, for his classic autobiography, The Education of Henry Adams , which was awarded a Pulitzer Prize in 1919. In "A Law of Acceleration," the second-to-last chapter of The Education of Henry Adams , Adams observed that whereas coal output served as the measure of progress in the 19th century, the dynamo would characterize the acceleration of progress in the 20th. Looking ahead to the year 2000, he imagined a world in which people would be able to "control unlimited power" and "think in complexities unimaginable to an earlier mind."

But very few boys plan on it; only one, perhaps, ever took it for granted. Young Henry Adams thought that being President was the family trade. It was an easy mistake for him to make. His great-grandfather, John Adams, had been the second President of the U.S., his grandfather, John Quincy Adams, the sixth. His father, Charles Francis Adams, was a distinguished Ambassador to Great Britain (1861-68), but barely came within flirting distance of the White House. The only political mandate little (5 ft. 4 in.) Henry Adams ever received was for an occasional dinner with Theodore Roosevelt, whom he half scornfully dubbed "Loonatic Teddy." Jilted Lover. A proud man from a proud clan, Henry Adams never quite reconciled himself to the fact that he and his were through setting up White Housekeeping. He adopted the tone of the jilted lover and always spoke through the mask of failure.

Extractions: Adams National Historic Site, Quincy, Massachusetts Henry Adams Caricature, 1904 Henry Adams (1838-1918) was a philosopher-historian, writer and relative of two presidents. He taught at Harvard University, then moved with his wife Marian Hooper Adams to Washington, D.C., in 1877. It was for Marian's gravesite that Adams commissioned Saint-Gaudens to create the Adams Memorial . Adams and his close friend John Hay built adjoining houses on Lafayette Square, designed by architect Henry H. Richardson. Saint-Gaudens visited Adams and Hay on his many trips to Washington between 1900 and 1904. In 1904 Saint-Gaudens made this caricature of Adams which symbolized the "outward gruffness and inner gentleness" of the historian. Both Hay and he referred to Adams as "Porcupinus Angelicus", or "Porcupinus Poeticus," and Adams is depicted on this medallion with wings above and porcupine quills below. Saint-Gaudens sent Hay, Secretary of State at the time, to deliver the caricature to Adams in Paris. It was sent like a diplomatic message, complete with couriers and seals.

Collect about me the innumerable swarm of my fellows; let them hear my confessions; let them groan at my unworthiness; let them blush at my meannesses! Let each of them discover his heart in his turn at the foot of thy throne with the same sincerity; and then let any one of them tell thee if he dares: 'I was a better man!'" Jean Jacques was a very great educator in the manner of the eighteenth century, and has been commonly thought to have had more influence than any other teacher of his time; but his peculiar method of improving human nature has not been universally admired. Most educators of the nineteenth century have declined to show themselves before their scholars as objects more vile or contemptible than necessary, and even the humblest teacher hides, if possible, the faults with which nature has generously embellished us all, as it did Jean Jacques, thinking, as most religious minds are apt to do, that the Eternal Father himself may not feel unmixed pleasure at our thrusting under his eyes chiefly the least agreeable details of his creation.
