The details

A whole moral philosophy in eleven words. John Adams, second President of the United States, on what a life actually requires: "To be good, and to do good, is all we have to do." No hedging, no small print - character and action, and nothing else on the list. Set as a letterpress broadside in clean condensed caps with the closing line in brick red, framed by stars, rules and a laurel. Why you'll reach for this tee: Heavyweight, garment-dyed comfort - 6.1 oz/yd2 of 100% ring-spun cotton Broken-in softness and a lived-in look from the very first wear Relaxed unisex fit, true to size Double-needle collar and twill-taped shoulders, built to last Clean letterpress-style typography - the quote reads at arm's length Part of a presidential-quote series in the same navy-and-cream broadside style Perfect for: Founding-Father and early-republic history buffs Teachers, coaches and anyone who leads by example Graduations, confirmations and milestone gifts Fourth of July and Presidents Day Quiet, well-written patriotism rather than slogans Pairing with the rest of the presidential-quote series Be good. Do good. That's the whole list.
