“Nothing is more likely than that [the] enumeration of powers is defective. This is the ordinary case of all human works. Let us then go on perfecting it by adding by way of amendment to the Constitution those powers which time and trial show are still wanting”

Thomas Jefferson

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”

Thomas Jefferson

“With your talents and industry, with science, and that steadfast honesty, which eternally pursues right, regardless of consequences, you may promise yourself everything but health, without which there is no happiness.”

Thomas Jefferson

“I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and Constitutions. But laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Were I to undertake to answer the calumnies of the newspapers, it would be more than all my own time, and that of 20 aids could effect. For while I should be answering one, twenty new ones would be invented. I have thought it better to trust the justice of my country-men, that they would judge me by what they see of my conduct on the stage where they have placed me.”

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

“May I never get too busy in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion.”

Thomas Jefferson

“A nation which expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, expects that which never was and never will be.”

Thomas Jefferson

“سلطة ضخمة و قوية جدا توفر لك كل ما تطلبه ، هى حكومة قادرة على سلب كل شئ منك . التاريخ يقول انه كلما زادت قوة السلطات نقصت الحرية”

Thomas Jefferson

“How much pain they have cost us, the evils which have never happened. --”

Thomas Jefferson

“Kalau marah, berhitunglah sampai sepuluh sebelum berbicara, atau bahkan seratus kalau sedang marah sekali.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“never trust a man who won't accept that there is more than one way to spell a word Paraphrased”

Thomas Jefferson

“There is a natural aristocracy among men. The grounds of this are virtue and talents.”

Thomas Jefferson

“When angry, count ten before you speak; if very angry, an hundred.”

Thomas Jefferson

“I find friendship to be like wine, raw when new, ripened with age, the true old man's milk and restorative cordial.”

Thomas Jefferson
