The correct answer is:

Passionate and logical.

The Founding Fathers, wrote the Declaration of Independence. This document was logical, yet not intellectual. Passionate, yet not personal. It was very simple. Well thought out, but simple. It was constructed that way so that even simple minded could understand. It was logical in all it's aspects. For instance, the text states, "whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government."
