“It be urged that the wild and uncultivated tree, hitherto yielding sour and bitter fruit only, can never be made to yield better; yet we know that the grafting art implants a new tree on the savage stock, producing what is most estimable in kind and degree. Education, in like manner, engrafts a new man on the native stock, and improves what in his nature was vicious and perverse into qualities of virtue and social worth.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Honesty is the first chapter of the book wisdom.”

Thomas Jefferson

“It is while we are young that the habit of industry is formed. If not then, it never is afterward.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The happiest moments of my life have been the few which I have passed at home in the bosom of my family” 

Thomas Jefferson

“In questions of power, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the constitution.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The only security of all is in a free press.”

Thomas Jefferson

“It was one of the rules which above all others made Doctr. Franklin the most amiable of men in society, "never to contradict anybody.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The inquisition of public opinion overwhelms in practice the freedom asserted by the laws in theory.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The whole art of government consists in the art of being honest.”

Thomas Jefferson

“… the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Our civil rights have no dependence upon our religious opinions more than our opinions in physics or geometry.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The attempt of Lavoisier to reform chemical nomenclature is premature. One single experiment may destroy the whole filiation of his terms; and his string of sulphates, sulphites, and sulphures, may have served no end than to have retarded the progress of science by a jargon, from the confusion of which time will be requisite to extricate us.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“It is the duty of every American citizen to take part in a vigorous debate on the issues of the day.”

Thomas Jefferson

“There is not a sprig of grass that shoots uninteresting to me.”

Thomas Jefferson
