More quotes by Andrew Jackson
I have never in my life seen a Kentuckian who didn't have a gun, a pack of cards, and a jug of whiskey.
Andrew Jackson
After eight years as President I have only two regrets: that I have not shot Henry Clay or hanged John C. Calhoun.
Andrew Jackson
The authority of the Supreme Court must not be permitted to control the Congress or the Executive when acting in their legislative capacities, but to have only such influence as the force of their reasoning may deserve.
Andrew Jackson
I say to you never involve yourself in debt, and become no man's surety.
Andrew Jackson
You are uneasy you never sailed with me before, I see.
Andrew Jackson
I am now eased in my finances and replenished in my wardrobe.
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
The great constitutional corrective in the hands of the people against usurpation of power, or corruption by their agents is the right of suffrage and this when used with calmness and deliberation will prove strong enough.
Andrew Jackson
Democracy shows not only its power in reforming governments, but in regenerating a race of men and this is the greatest blessing of free governments.
Andrew Jackson
I do not promise to believe tomorrow exactly what I believe today, and I do not believe today exactly what I believed yesterday. I expect to make, as I have made, some honest progress within every succeeding twenty-four hours.
Andrew Jackson
Temporize not! It is always injurious.
Andrew Jackson
I was born for a storm and a calm does not suit me.
Andrew Jackson
When you get in debt you become a slave.
Andrew Jackson
I am one of those who do not believe that a national debt is a national blessing, but rather a curse to a republic inasmuch as it is calculated to raise around the administration a moneyed aristocracy dangerous to the liberties of the country.
Andrew Jackson
Mischief springs from the power which the moneyed interest derives from a paper currency which they are able to control, from the multitude of corporations with exclusive privileges... which are employed altogether for their benefit.
Andrew Jackson
Live within your means, never be in debt, and by husbanding your money you can always lay it out well.
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
The people are the government, administering it by their agents they are the government, the sovereign power.
Andrew Jackson
There are no necessary evils in government. Its evils exist only in its abuses.
Andrew Jackson
Freemasonry is an institution calculated to benefit mankind.
