Book Description
Mirabella had even booked a NetJets Excel, but unfortunately, their passenger never arrived. Leanna kindly asked one of her best friends working at the NSA to activate her access to the satellites. Using Echelon on another computer, she managed to jam the engine software on Veronica's chauffeured car. When the limo got closer to a truck in the opposite direction, she pushed the enter-key on her laptop. Within a second, the driver suffered a heart failure through an electrical discharge on the steering wheel; a wrong steering signal was sent to the servo-control as well as a brake jamming. The car jumped into the air, doing a barrel-roll and crashing on the other side of the A8, into the approaching truck transporting liquid gas.

Light and Liberty
Author: Thomas Jefferson
Publisher: Modern Library
ISBN: 0812974328
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Were Thomas Jefferson alive to read this book, he would recognize every sentence, every elegant turn of phrase, every lofty, beautifully expressed idea. Indeed, every word in the book is his. In an astonishing feat of editing, Eric S. Petersen has culled the entirety of Thomas Jefferson’s published works to fashion thirty-four original essays on themes ranging from patriotism and liberty to hope, humility, and gratitude. The result is a lucid, inspiring distillation of the wisdom of one of America’s greatest political thinkers. From his personal motto—“Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God”—to his resounding discourse on “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” in the Declaration of Independence, Jefferson defined the essential truth of the American spirit. In the essays that Petersen has crafted from letters, speeches, and public documents, Jefferson’s unique moral philosophy and vision shine through. Among the hundreds of magnificent sentences gathered in this volume, here are Jefferson’s pronouncements on Gratitude: “I have but one system of ethics for men and for nations— to be grateful, to be faithful to all engagements and under all circumstances, to be open and generous.” Religion: “A concern purely between our God and our consciences.” America’s national character: “It is part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate; to surmount every difficulty with resolution and contrivance.” Public debt: “We shall all consider ourselves unauthorized to saddle posterity with our debts, and morally bound to pay them ourselves.” War: “I abhor war and view it as the greatest scourge of mankind.” In stately measured cadences, these thirty-four essays provide timeless guidance on leading a spiritually fulfilling life. Light and Liberty is a triumphant work of supreme eloquence, as uplifting today as when Jefferson first set these immortal sentences on paper.
