Whether I retire to bed early ...

Whether I retire to bed early or late, I rise with the sun.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

God grant that men of principle shall be our principal men.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

I have ever judged of the reli...

I have ever judged of the religion of others by their lives. For it is in our lives, and not from our works, that our religion must be read.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Congress has not unlimited pow...

Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

I consider the foundation of t...

I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that 'all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states or to the people.' To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power not longer susceptible of any definition.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

That the enthusiasm which char...

That the enthusiasm which characterizes youth should lift its parricide hands against freedom and science would be such a monstrous phenomenon as I cannot place among possible things in this age and country.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

I have not observed mens hones...

I have not observed mens honesty to increase with their riches.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

I should . . . prefer swallowi...

I should . . . prefer swallowing one incomprehensibility rather than two. It requires one effort only to admit the single incomprehensibility of matter endowed with thought, and two to believe, first that of an existence called spirit, of which we have neither evidence nor idea, and then secondly how that spirit, which has neither extension nor solidity, can put material organs into motion.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Religious leaders will always avail themselves of public ignorance for their own purpose.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Born in other countries, yet b...

Born in other countries, yet believing you could be happy in this, our laws acknowledge, as they should do, your right to join us in society, conforming, as I doubt not you will do, to our established rules. That these rules shall be as equal as prudential considerations will admit, will certainly be the aim of our legislatures, general and particular.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

[Emigrants] will bring with th...

[Emigrants] will bring with them the principles of the governments they leave, imbibed in their early youth; or, if able to throw off, it will be in exchange for an unbounded licentiousness, passing, as is usual, from one extreme to another. It would be a miracle were they to stop precisely at the point of temperate liberty.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

The only security of all is in...

The only security of all is in a free press. The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed. The agitation it produces must be submitted to. It is necessary, to keep he waters pure.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

It is strangely absurd to supp...

It is strangely absurd to suppose that a million of human beings, collected together, are not under the same moral laws which bind each of them separately.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

The sentiments of men are know...

The sentiments of men are known not only by what they receive, but what they reject also.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

If ever there was a holy war, it was that which saved our liberties and gave us independence.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

We prefer war in all cases to ...

We prefer war in all cases to tribute under any form and to any people whatever.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

I have always said that a studious perusal of the sacred volume will make better citizens, better fathers, and better husbands.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

The sovereign invigorator of the body is exercise, and of all the exercises walking is the best.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

It is not only vain, but wicked, in a legislator to frame laws in opposition to the laws of nature, and to arm them with the terrors of death. This is truly creating crimes in order to punish them.

Motherhood is the keystone of the arch of matrimonial happiness.
