History has its own commentary, this drama is worth watching!

Hamilton, the founder of the U.S. financial system and monetary system, and one of the founding fathers, ranked fourth in Washington's first cabinet (with Adams and Jefferson in front), 12 years younger than Jefferson. He advocated centralization, contrary to Jefferson's political views. As an Irish immigrant, he instigated Washington to support Britain in the Anglo-French conflict, and the conflict with Jefferson who supported France intensified. Personally, I think that this drama pays more attention to the psychology of the characters, and the past of the founding of the country is just a condiment to show the charm, contradiction and weakness of the characters. This is the official success of the show. Hamilton, talented and ambitious, not throw away my shot, never be satisfied! Washington stepped back in time, teach people to say goodbye. Eliza is gentle and tough, she has the time he lacks the most, biography, building an orphanage, and preparing to build the Washington Monument in Manhattan Square. No one is perfect, greatness and despicability go hand in hand, as described in the play, history has eyes on you.

In my lifetime, I want to see the live Broadway version!

Hamilton quotes

  • Aaron Burr: I strike him right between his ribs/I walk towards him/But I am ushered away/They row him back across the Hudson/I get a drink/I hear wailing in the streets/Somebody tells me "You'd better hide"/They say Angelica and Eliza were both at his side when he died/Death doesn't discriminate/Between the sinners and the saints/It takes and it takes and it takes/History obliterates/In every picture it paints/It paints me in all my mistakes/When Alexander aimed at the sky/He may have been the first one to die/But I'm the one who paid for it/I survived, but I paid for it/Now I'm the villain in your history/I was too young and blind to see/I should've known, I should've known the world was wide enough/For both Hamilton and me/The world was wide enough/For both Hamilton and me.

  • Alexander Hamilton: Sit down, John, you fat mother
