From The Patriot Post:
Founders' Quote:
"I leave to others the sublime delights of riding in the
storm, better pleased with sound sleep & a warmer berth below
it encircled, with the society of neighbors, friends & fellow
laborers of the earth rather than with spies & sycophants...I have
no ambition to govern men. It is a painful and thankless office."
-- Thomas Jefferson (letter to John Adams, 28 December 1796)
A collection of thoughts from a conservative in Northwest Ohio - fighting the good fight and standing for Constitutional principles

"It is a painful and thankless office."
I suspect that if I were to ask any former office holder about this quote, most would probably agree (and, the rest would be liars)... ;-)
And, although tempted, No I won't :-)
While there are many rewards to being in public service, many times this comment is true.
