Best. Diary. Entry. Ever.

“On board all day, reading Don Quixote,”

– John Adams

This from a single diary entry by John Adams on May 18, 1779. I believe he was aboard the Alliance, waiting for passage back to America. Remember your diary entries don’t have to be long to be remembered over one hundred years on.

McCullough, David. John Adams. Simon & Schuster, 2001. pg 215
