More quotes by Thomas Jefferson
A pirate spreading misery and ruin over the face of the ocean
Thomas Jefferson
It is an essential attribute of the jurisdiction of every country to preserve peace, to punish acts in breach of it, and to restore property taken by force within its limits.
Thomas Jefferson
Let common sense and common honesty have fair play, and they will soon set things to rights.
Thomas Jefferson
The ground of liberty is to be gained by inches, and we must be contented to secure what we can get from time to time and eternally press forward for what is yet to get. It takes time to persuade men to do even what is for their own good.
Thomas Jefferson
On every question of construction (of the Constitution) let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit of the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed.
Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson
Whether I retire to bed early or late, I rise with the sun.
Thomas Jefferson
What i value more than all things, good humor.
Thomas Jefferson
While old men feel sensibly enough their own advance in years, they do not sufficiently recollect it in those whom they have seenyoung.
Thomas Jefferson
I learn with great concern that [one] portion of our frontier so interesting, so important, and so exposed, should be so entirely unprovided with common fire-arms. I did not suppose any part of the United States so destitute of what is considered as among the first necessaries of a farm-house.
Thomas Jefferson
Those who live by mystery & charlatanerie, fearing you would render them useless by simplifying the Christian philosophy - the most sublime and benevolent, but most perverted system that ever shone on man - endeavored to crush your well-earned & well-deserved fame.
Thomas Jefferson
Now I will avow, that I then believed and now believe that those general principles of Christianity are as eternal and immutable as the existence and attributes of God and that those principles of liberty are as unalterable as human nature and our terrestrial, mundane system.
Thomas Jefferson
No nation is drunken where wine is cheap.
Thomas Jefferson
The information of the people at large can alone make them the safe as they are the sole depositary of our political and religious freedom.
Thomas Jefferson
A mind always employed is always happy.
Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson
From candlelight to early bedtime, I read.
Thomas Jefferson
It is every Americans' right and obligation to read and interpret the Constitution for himself.
Thomas Jefferson
It is proof of sincerity, which I value above all things as, between those who practice it, falsehood and malice work their efforts in vain.
Thomas Jefferson
