Although what he really said was in a letter to Abigail.
"I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce, and agriculture, in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain."
Yes, the series was very good.
Although my favorite Adams portrayal was William Daniels in "1776" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068156/
1776 - musical; yes I recently saw it. Also saw the Marriott Lincolnshire version some years ago. One of my favorite.
