Hey, have any of you guys heard this?

'''The state representatives who assembled for the Constitutional Convention understood the importance of that event.

'''Moreover, they were keenly aware that an effective union of the states had to be formed.

'''James Madison would mention the "fate of Republican Government."

'''James Wilson would call it the "first instance" of the peaceful creation of a government since the years following the creation of the world.

'''Gouverneur Morris shared that the effects of the decisions of that meeting would impact the whole human race.

'''"Demigods" was the word Thomas Jefferson used to describe the men assembled for that convention.

Clearly, they were aware that they were part of a historical event.

I just read that today, and I couldn't believe it. I didn't get when he would use the word to describe those men, but ok.
