I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

I hope we shall crush in its b...

I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

A strong body makes the mind s...

A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

But friendship is precious, no...

But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Our greatest happiness does no...

Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

A Bill of Rights is what the people are entitled to against every government, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

To compel a man to furnish fun...

To compel a man to furnish funds for the propagation of ideas he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

The constitutions of most of o...

The constitutions of most of our States assert that all power is inherent in the people; that... it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

When we get piled upon one ano...

When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

For a people who are free, and who mean to remain so, a well-organized and armed militia is their best security.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Question with boldness even th...

Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

We hold these truths to be sel...

We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Rightful liberty is unobstruct...

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Experience demands that man is...

Experience demands that man is the only animal which devours his own kind, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

He who knows nothing is closer...

He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.

Thomas Jefferson 2120 quotes

Determine never to be idle. No...

Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.
