I Prefer Dangerous Freedom Over Peaceful Slavery.

I Have Now The Gloomy Prospect Of Retiring From Office Loaded With Serious Debts, Which Will Materially Affect The Tranquility Of My Retirement.

Educate And Inform The Whole Mass Of The People. Enable Them To See That It Is Their Interest To Preserve Peace And Order, And They Will Preserve Them.

If Virtuous, The Government Need Not Fear The Fair Operation Of Attack And Defense. Nature Has Given To Man No Other Means Of Sifting The Truth, Either In Religion, Law, Or Politics.

I Tremble For My Country When I Reflect That God Is Just; That His Justice Cannot Sleep Forever.

The Cornerstone Of Democracy Rests On The Foundation Of An Educated Electorate.
