“Happiness is not being pained in body or troubled in mind.”

Thomas Jefferson

“He who knows best knows how little he knows.”

Thomas Jefferson

“No government ought to be without censors; and where the press is free no one ever will.”

Thomas Jefferson

“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 you want something you've never had You must be willing to do something you've never done.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“When once we quit the basis of sensation, all is in the wind. To talk of immaterial existences is to talk of nothings. To say that the human soul, angels, god, are immaterial, is to say they are nothings, or that there is no god, no angels, no soul. I cannot reason otherwise: but I believe I am supported in my creed of materialism by Locke, Tracy, and Stewart.

Thomas Jefferson

“Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of people that these liberties are the gift of God?” 

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

“An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizens.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Our properties within our own territories [should not] be taxed or regulated by any power on earth but our own.”

Thomas Jefferson

“History, by apprising [the people] of the past, will enable them to judge of the future.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“I cannot live without books . . .”

Thomas Jefferson

“The Christian god can easily be pictured as virtually the same god as the many ancient gods of past civilizations. The Christian god is a three headed monster cruel vengeful and capricious. If one wishes to know more of this raging three headed beast like god one only needs to look at the caliber of people who say they serve him. They are always of two classes fools and hypocrites. ”

Thomas Jefferson

“This is the fourth?

Thomas Jefferson

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

Thomas Jefferson
