Favorite Quote:

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

    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

    The rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.

  • -JFK, 1961

    We have no government with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge … would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
