I try not to be too pedantic about this--it is the internet after all--so I ordinarily don't even look into citations such as those attributed to people such as the American founding fathers. But the cite about the "law firms" sounded wrong not only because it was stylistically at odds with anything I've read of John Adams but because there were no law firms as we call them in colonial America.
Also John Adams was a lawyer. And Adams promoted the Alien and Sedition Act so probably not the guy most Americans these days would identify with.
