More quotes by Andrew Jackson
Being the dependents of the general government, and looking to its treasury as the source of all their emoluments, the state officers, under whatever names they might pass and by whatever forms their duties might be prescribed, would in effect be the mere stipendiaries and instruments of the central power.
Andrew Jackson
[The Bible] is the rock on which our Republic rests.
Andrew Jackson
It is a well-settled principle of the international code that where one nation owes another a liquidated debt which it refuses or neglects to pay the aggrieved party may seize on the property belonging to the other, its citizens or subjects, sufficient to pay the debt without giving just cause of war.
Andrew Jackson
The murderer only takes the life of the parent and leaves his character as a goodly heritage to his children, whilst the slanderer takes away his goodly reputation and leaves him a living monument to his children's disgrace.
Andrew Jackson

Andrew Jackson
From his proceedings in Congress, he appears demented, and his actings and doings inspire my pity more than anger.
Andrew Jackson
The planter, the farmer, the mechanic, and the laborer...form the great body of the people of the United States they are the bone and sinew of the country men who love liberty and desire nothing but equal rights and equal laws.
Andrew Jackson
I was born for a storm and a calm does not suit me.
Andrew Jackson

Andrew Jackson
Too much praise cannot be bestowed on those who managed my artillery.
Andrew Jackson
There are no necessary evils in government. Its evils exist only in its abuses.
Andrew Jackson
I am a Senator against my wishes and feelings, which I regret more than any other of my life.
Andrew Jackson
Heaven will be heaven only if my wife is there.
Andrew Jackson
Were all the worshippers of the gold calf to memorialize me and request a restoration of the deposits I would cut my right hand from my body before I would do such an act. The gold calf may be worshipped by others but as for myself I serve the Lord.
Andrew Jackson
I consider, then, the power to annul a law of the United States, assumed by one state, incompatible with the existence of the Union, contradicted expressly by the letter of the Constitution, unauthorized by its spirit, inconsistent with every principle on which it was founded, and destructive of the great object for which it was formed.
Andrew Jackson
Perpetuity is stamped upon the Constitution by the blood of our fathers.
Andrew Jackson
Go to the Scriptures... the joyful promises it contains will be a balsam to all your troubles.
Andrew Jackson
There are no necessary evils in government. Its evils exist only in its abuses. If it would confine itself to equal protection, and, as Heaven does its rains, shower its favors alike on the high and the low, the rich and the poor, it would be an unqualified blessing.
Andrew Jackson
I find virtue to be found amongst the farmers of the country alone, not about courts, where courtiers dwell.
Andrew Jackson
