Thomas Jefferson

“Truth is great and will prevail if left to herself.”

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

Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson

“Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always cool and unruffled under all circumstances.”

Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson
