[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just revisited Monticello in September. I had not been there in over 30 years. I came away not liking him. He was a spoiled rich boy who had a flair for writing. While he definitely talked the talk, he never walked the walk. He cared more about himself and his books than anything. [/quote] YES. When you take the tour and see the tiny, cramped dark space upstairs that he specially designed for his daughters to live in (because it was more aesthetically pleasing from the outside looking in), versus his lovely spacious bedroom with the "ingenious" dual-exit bed...you see that he was a terrible person. On so many levels. By the way, his daughters ran his entire estate, he did f-all nothing except coming up with ridiculous plans that other people actually fulfilled and jaunting off to europe.[/quote]
