"Levantemos un estándar al cual los sabios y honestos puedan acudir. El resto está en manos de Dios."
— George Washington

Simplified Meaning:
We should set high standards for behavior and honesty that serve as a model for everyone. Wise and good-hearted people will naturally follow these standards. Think of it like setting up a shelter in a storm - good people will naturally seek it out for safety. Once we’ve set these high standards, what happens next is not in our control. This can be compared to planting a tree: you can plant it and water it, but you can't control whether it will thrive; nature takes it from there. By living with integrity and making good choices, we create a positive example for others. From there, we have to trust that things will turn out as they should, with the rest up to a higher power.
