{"quotes":[{"text":"On opening night, standing under the Rogers's marquee, [Lin] realized that if Eliza's struggle was the element of Hamilton's story that had inspired him the most, then the show itself was a part of her legacy.","author":"Jeremy McCarter","tags":["alexander-hamilton","eliza","eliza-hamilton","hamilton","legacy","legacy","lin-manuel-miranda"],"id":2440,"author_id":"Jeremy+McCarter"},{"text":"Those then, who resist a confirmation of public order, are the true Artificers of monarchy—not that this is the intention of the generality of them. Yet it would not be difficult to lay the finger upon some of their party who may justly be suspected. When a man unprincipled in private life desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents, having the advantage of military habits—despotic in his ordinary demeanour—known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty—when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity—to join in the cry of danger to liberty—to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government \u0026 bringing it under suspicion—to flatter and fall in with all the non sense of the zealots of the day—It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may “ride the storm and direct the whirlwind.","author":"Alexander Hamilton","tags":["anarchy","fearmongering","hamilton","monarchy","trump","unprincipled","zealot"],"id":121843,"author_id":"Alexander+Hamilton"},{"text":"The past places no absolute limit on the future.","author":"Lin-Manuel Miranda","tags":["future","hamilton","limits","past"],"id":140613,"author_id":"Lin-Manuel+Miranda"},{"text":"Jefferson feared that Hamilton had plans radically at odds with the Constitution. As he saw it, Hamilton wanted to warp the federal government out of constitutional shape, converting it into a copy of the British government, built on debt, corruption, and influence. Hamilton's goal, Jefferson charged, was to ally the rich and well born with the government at the people's expense, creating a corrupt aristocracy leagued with the government against the people and destroying the virtue that was the basis of republican government. Only a republic could preserve liberty, Jefferson insisted, and only virtue among the people could preserve a republic.","author":"R.B.

[Eliza] crusaded against slavery, as Hamilton had. And this widow of an orphan helped to found the first private orphanage in New York. That's the real power of a legacy: We tell stories of people who are gone because like any powerful stories, they have the potential to inspire, and to change the world.","author":"Jeremy McCarter","tags":["alexander-hamilton","eliza","eliza-hamilton","hamilton","legacy","legacy"],"id":288494,"author_id":"Jeremy+McCarter"},{"text":"My wife's the reason anything gets done, she nudges me towards promise by degrees. She is a perfect symphony of one our son is her most beautiful reprise. We chase the melodies that seem to find us until they're finished songs and start to play. When senseless acts of tragedy remind us that nothing here is promised--not one day. This show is proof that history remembers. We live in times when hate and fear seem stronger. We rise and fall and light from dying embers--remembrances that hope and love last longer. And love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love cannot be killed or swept aside. I sing Vanessa's symphony. Eliza tells her story. Now, fill the world with music, love, and pride.","author":"Lin-Manuel Miranda","tags":["hamilton","hamilton-musical","inspirational","lgbt","lin-manuel-miranda","tony-awards"],"id":305440,"author_id":"Lin-Manuel+Miranda"},{"text":"I know my sister like I know my own mind, you will never find anyone as trusting or as kind.","author":"Lin-Manuel Miranda","tags":["alexander-hamilton","family","hamilton","hamilton-musical","kind","lin-manuel-miranda","love","sister","sisterhood"],"id":350495,"author_id":"Lin-Manuel+Miranda"},{"text":"I think Lafayette wants to rap in French now.
