Safe Quotations
Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories. Thomas Jefferson I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them but to inform their discretion. Thomas Jefferson Where the press is free and every man able to read, all is safe. Thomas Jefferson The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned. Maya Angelou Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another, but let him work diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built. Abraham Lincoln He that's secure is not safe. Benjamin Franklin If we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. John F. Kennedy Music is a safe kind of high. Jimi Hendrix I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen. Martin Luther An engaged woman is always more agreeable than a disengaged. She is satisfied with herself. Her cares are over, and she feels that she may exert all her powers of pleasing without suspicion. All is safe with a lady engaged; no harm can be done. Jane Austen |
