“I am convinced our own happiness requires that we should continue to mix with the world, and to keep pace with it as it goes. "

Thomas Jefferson

“A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the highest virtues of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means.”

Thomas Jefferson

“When the people fear the government there is tyranny, when the government fears the people there is liberty.”

“If the present Congress errs in too much talking, how can it be otherwise in a body to which the people send 150. lawyers, whose trade it is to question everything, yield nothing, & talk by the hour?

Thomas Jefferson

“Politics, like religion, hold up the torches of martyrdom to the reformers of error.”

Thomas Jefferson

“He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.”
