A Hero For The Ages
“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”
“I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.”
“All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to … remain silent.”
“A Bill of Rights is what the people are entitled to against every government, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference.”
“Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.”
“Every generation needs a new revolution.”
- Thomas Jefferson
