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

QuoteAuthor
Habituated from our Infancy to trample upon the Rights of Human Nature, every generous, every liberal Sentiment, if not extinguished, is enfeebled in our Minds.George Mason
Half a truth is often a great lie.Benjamin Franklin
Happiness and moral duty are inseparably connected.George Washington
Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally. Make it the object of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is never attained. Follow some other object, and very possibly we may find that we have caught happiness without dreaming of it.Nathaniel Hawthorne
Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.Nathaniel Hawthorne
Happiness is not being pained in body or troubled in mind.Thomas Jefferson
Having been poor is no shame, but being ashamed of it, is.Benjamin Franklin
Having proceeded to this length, for which they are now ripe, we shall have a formidable rebellion against reason, the principle of all government, and against the very name of liberty.Henry Knox
He does not possess wealth; it possesses him.Benjamin Franklin
He enjoys true leisure who has time to improve his soul's estate.Henry David Thoreau
He is a great simpleton who imagines that the chief power of wealth is to supply wants. In ninety-nine cases out of a hundred it creates more wants than it supplies.William Wirt
He that can have patience can have what he will.Benjamin Franklin
He that composes himself is wiser than he that composes a book.Benjamin Franklin
He that displays too often his wife and his wallet is in danger of having both of them borrowed.Benjamin Franklin
He that has done you a kindness will be more ready to do you another, than he whom you yourself have obliged.Benjamin Franklin
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.Benjamin Franklin
He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money.Benjamin Franklin
He that lives upon hope will die fasting.Benjamin Franklin
He that raises a large family does, indeed, while he lives to observe them, stand a broader mark for sorrow; but then he stands a broader mark for pleasure too.Benjamin Franklin
He that rebels against reason is a real rebel, but he that in defence of reason rebels against tyranny has a better title to Defender of the Faith, than George the Third.Thomas Paine
