More from Thomas Jefferson
"Were I to enter on a newspaper, it should be to give the public generally a choice of all the productions of the human mind, which have been published."
"I think myself that we are over-governed, and that the best government is that which governs least."
"The most successful war seldom pays for its losses."
"Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves, therefore, are its only safe depositories."
"Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter."
