Famous Quotes: Part 1 Thomas Jefferson


 In between Posts relating to our county government and it's performance we will offer posts in the form that follow to explain why America is the Greatest Experiment in Liberty the world has ever known!

It has been said: 
"the greatest volume of sheer brainpower in one place occurred when Jefferson dined 
alone... "         
 HOW DID JEFFERSON KNOW??? 

"When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, 
we shall become as corrupt as Europe."
Thomas Jefferson 

"The democracy will cease to exist 
when you take away from those who are willing to work 
and give to those who would not. "
Thomas Jefferson 

"It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. 
A principle which if acted on 
would save one-half the wars of the world." 
Thomas Jefferson 

"I predict future happiness for Americans 
if they can prevent the government 
from wasting the labors of the people 
under the pretense of taking care of them." 
Thomas Jefferson 

"My reading of history convinces me 
that most bad government results from too much government."
Thomas Jefferson 

"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." 
Thomas Jefferson 

"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms 
is, as a last resort, 
to protect themselves against tyranny in government. "
Thomas Jefferson

with the blood of patriots and tyrants. "

the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors 
is sinful and tyrannical. "
Thomas Jefferson 


The United States of America was not just an extension of England and a European Ideology, it is a concept born of man's desire to be free! Why then do many of our leaders wish to take us back centuries under the guise of a Progressive Movement, when the idea alone is as regressive as it can be?
