Washington, DC…Thomas Jefferson April 13, 1743 – July 4, 1826 a Founding Father & third President of the United States

“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add ‘within the limits of the law’ because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.”

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”

“Nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle.”

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

“Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost.”

“Do you want to know who you are? Don’t ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”

“Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty.”

“Whenever you do a thing, act as if all the world were watching.”

“One man with courage is a majority.”
