Thomas Jefferson

“The happiest moments of my life have been the few which I have passed at home in the bosom of my family.”

“The vote being passed, altho' further observn on it was out of order, he could not refrain from rising and expressing his satisfaction and concluded by saying "there is but one word, Mr. President, in the paper which I disapprove, & that is the word Congress," on which Ben Harrison rose and said "there is but on word in the paper, Mr. President, of which I approve, and that is the word Congress.”

Thomas Jefferson

“A Man's management of his own purse speaks volumes about character”

Thomas Jefferson

“yet neither are those innocent who lay the bait in their way; that the opinions of men are not the object of civil government, nor under its jurisdiction; that to suffer the civil magistrate to intrude his powers into the field of opinion and to restrain the profession or propagation of principles on supposition of their ill tendency is a dangerous falacy, which at once destroys all religious liberty, because he being of course judge of that tendency will make his opinions the rule of judgment, and approve or condemn the sentiments of others only as they shall square with or differ from his own; that it is time enough for the rightful purposes of civil government for its officers to interfere when principles break out into overt acts against peace and good order;”

Thomas Jefferson

“Thomas Jefferson asked himself “In what country on earth would you rather live ” He first answered “Certainly in my own where are all my friends my relations and the earliest and sweetest affections and recollections of my life.” But he continued “which would be your second choice ” His answer “France.”

“That one generation of men in civil society have no right to make acts to bind another, is a truth that cannot be confused.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The object most interesting to me for the residue of my life, will be to see you both developing daily those principles of virtue and goodness which will make you valuable to others and happy in yourselves, and acquiring those talents and that degree of science which will guard you at all times against ennui, the most dangerous poison of life. A mind always employed is always happy. This is the true secret, the grand recipe for felicity....In a world which furnishes so many employments which are useful, and so many which are amusing, it is our own fault if we ever know what ennui is...”

Thomas Jefferson

“As Thomas Jefferson proclaimed, “In matters of fashion, swim with the current. In matters of conscience, stand like a rock.”

Thomas Jefferson

“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our People, and eat out their substance.”

Thomas Jefferson

“[A] lawyer without books would be like a workman without tools.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The whole art of government consists in the art of being honest. Only aim to do your duty, and mankind will give you credit where you fail.”

Thomas Jefferson

Thomas Jefferson
