Happy 4th Folks!
Here are some quotes from one of our founding fathers: Thomas Jefferson
When the people are afraid of their government, there is tyrany; when the government is afraid of the people there is liberty.
A Bill Of Rights is what people are entitled to againest every government, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference.
A coward is much more exposed to quarrels than a man of spirit.
A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent to the body and stamp no charactor on the mind. Let your gun therefore, be your constant companion in your walks.
A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men 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.
The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is natural manure.
