Colonial Quotes

 


We've been running
our Daily Colonial Quote feature for some time now, and the thought crossed our collective mind that some of these quotes may be of interest to you, Faithful Reader, in some other context than a randomized daily display: perhaps to be included in a report, an essay, presentation, or whatever.

Therefore, we decided to open up our collection of quotes to all, searchable by author or keyword. We hope you find them useful.

--The Colonial Sense Team

Despotism can only exist in darkness, and there are too many lights now in the political firmament to permit it to remain anywhere, as it has heretofore done, almost everywhere.James Madison
Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.Thomas Jefferson
Did you ever see a portrait of a great man without perceiving strong traits of pain and anxiety?
John Adams
Difference of opinion is advantageous in religion. The several sects perform the office of a Censor - over each other.Thomas Jefferson
Diligence is the mother of good luck.Benjamin Franklin
Discipline is the soul of an army. It makes small numbers formidable; procures success to the weak, and esteem to all.George Washington
Disobedience is the true foundation of liberty. The obedient must be slaves.Henry David Thoreau
Distrust and caution are the parents of security.Benjamin Franklin
Distrust any enterprise that requires new clothes. Henry David Thoreau
Disunion by force is treason.Andrew Jackson
Do good to your friends to keep them, to your enemies to win them.Benjamin Franklin
Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life so. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.Henry David Thoreau
Do not bite at the bait of pleasure, till you know there is no hook beneath it.Thomas Jefferson
Do not fear mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out.Benjamin Franklin
Do not hire a man who does your work for money, but him who does it for love of it.Henry David Thoreau
