More great quotes from the Founding Fathers

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

“…the Federal Government is our servant, not our master!” Thomas Jefferson

“It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people’s minds.” Samuel Adams

“When once a republic is corrupted, there is no possibility of remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other correction is useless or a new evil.” Thomas Jefferson

“Government is not reason; it is not eloquence. It is force. And force, like fire, is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.” George Washington

“A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government…” Thomas Jefferson

“I place economy among the first and most important virtues, and public debt as the greatest of dangers to be feared. To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt…If we can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people, under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy.” Thomas Jefferson

“We want a society in which we are free to make choices, to make mistakes, to be generous and compassionate. That is what we mean by a moral society- not a society in which the State is responsible for everything…”

“Socialism’s results have ranged between the merely shabby and the truly catastrophic…”

“The larger the slice taken by government, the smaller the cake taken by everyone.”

“The trouble with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.”
