"An honest heart being the first blessing,..." - Quote by Thomas Jefferson

“To take a single step beyond the boundaries specially drawn around the powers of Congress is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible to definition.”

“For if one link in nature's chain might be lost, another might be lost, until the whole of things will vanish by piecemeal.”

“Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages.”

“Undertake not what you cannot perform, but be careful to keep your promise.”

“I have not the capability to give you my loyalty, nor do I have the vanity to appear as if I did.”

“One cannot reach Truth by untruthfulness. Truthful conduct alone can reach truth.”

“All the fame and fortune, glory and prestige, can't make me happy if it goes against what I believe.”

“Don't do anything that goes against your conscience, even if your country says so.”

“When you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear. When you do the right things in the right way you have nothing to lose because you have nothing to fear.”
