FOUNDING FATHER QUOTES
Thomas Jefferson
“Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories.”
George Washington
“Government is not reason; it is not eloquence. It is force. And force, like fire, is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.”
Benjamin Franklin
“Without Freedom of Thought, there can be no such thing as Wisdom; and no such thing as public Liberty, without Freedom of Speech.”
Patrick Henry
“If life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”
John Adams
“You will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make a good use of it.”
James Madison
“Where an excess of power prevails, property of no sort is duly respected. No man is safe in his opinions, his person, his faculties, or his possessions.”
Thomas Jefferson
“The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”
Patrick Henry
“The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government – lest it come to dominate our lives and interests.”
Benjamin Franklin
“In free governments, the rulers are the servants and the people their superiors and sovereigns.”
On August 31st, we kicked of the month of September as "American Founders and Constitution" month in the rotunda of the Utah State Capitol.
Speakers included Governor Spencer Cox, former Governor Gary Herbert, and Tad Callister, among others. The American Heritage school choir sang beautiful patriotic songs. It was a great start to September!
