“I cannot live without books: but fewer will suffice where amusement, and not use, is the only future object.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“I have sworn upon the altar of god, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.”

Thomas Jefferson

“I find that the harder I work, the more luck I seem to have.”

Thomas Jefferson

“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

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

Thomas Jefferson

“He who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it the second time.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just.”

Thomas Jefferson

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

Thomas Jefferson

“I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country.”

Thomas Jefferson

“...as we advance in life these things fall off one by one , and I suspect we are left with only Homer and Virgil, perhaps with only Homer alone.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Reason and free inquiry are the only effectual agents against error.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everyone is standing around reloading”

Thomas Jefferson

“I wish I was a despot that I might save the noble, the beautiful trees that are daily falling sacrifice to the cupidity of their owners, or the necessity of the poor. The unnecessary felling of a tree, perhaps the growth of centuries, seems to me a crime little short of murder.”

Thomas Jefferson

“History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes.

Thomas Jefferson

“I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves ; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.” 

Thomas Jefferson
