“War is an instrument entirely inefficient toward redressing wrong; and multiplies, instead of indemnifying losses.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The whole commerce between master and slave is a perpetual exercise of the most boisterous passions, the most unremitting despotism on the one part, and degrading subjugation on the other. Our children see this, and learn to imitate it: for man is an imitative animal.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Every generation needs a new revolution.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Of all machines, the human heart is the most complicated and inexplicable.”

Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson

“Do not be too severe upon the errors of the people, but reclaim them by enlightening them.”

“I am conscious that an equal division of property is impracticable. But the consequences of this enormous inequality [in Europe] producing so much misery to the bulk of mankind, legislators cannot invent too many devices for subdividing property,...[One] means of silently lessening the inequality of property is to exempt all from taxation below a certain point, and to tax the higher portions of property in geometrical progression as they rise.”

Thomas Jefferson

“All are dead, and ourselves left alone amidst a new generation whom we know not, and who know us not.”

Thomas Jefferson

“If, therefore, from the settlement of the Saxons, to the introduction of Christianity among them, that system of religion could not be a part of the common law, because they were not yet Christians; and if, having their laws from that period to the close of the common law, we are able to find among them no such act of adoption; we may safely affirm (though contradicted by all the judges and writers on earth) that Christianity neither is, nor ever was, a part of the common law.

Thomas Jefferson

“The opinions of men are not the object of civil government, nor under its jurisdiction.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws of Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The God who gave us life gave us liberty at the same time; the hand of force may destroy but cannot disjoin them.”
