“Health, learning and virtue will ensure your happiness; they will give you a quiet conscience, private esteem and public honour.”

Thomas Jefferson

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

Thomas Jefferson

“I set out on this ground, which I suppose to be self-evident, that the earth belongs in usufruct to the living.”

Thomas Jefferson

“… the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

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

“I have lived temperately, eating little animal food, and that not as an aliment, so much as a condiment for the vegetables, which constitute my principal diet.”

Thomas Jefferson

“I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves ; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.” 

Thomas Jefferson

“I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post, which any human power can give.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions.”

Thomas Jefferson

“It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Nature intended me for the tranquil pursuits of science, by rendering them my supreme delight. But the enormities of the times in which I have lived, have forced me to take a part in resisting them, and to commit myself on the boisterous ocean of political passions.”

Thomas Jefferson

“To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.”

Thomas Jefferson

“I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.”

Thomas Jefferson

“I am certainly not an advocate for frequent and untried changes in laws and constitutions...but I know also that laws and constitutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind.....”

Thomas Jefferson

“The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first object.”
