Quotes of George Washington - The Father of America
If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.
Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth.
Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company.
Religion
is as necessary to reason as reason is to religion. The one cannot
exist without the other. A reasoning being would lose his reason, in
attempting to account for the great phenomena of nature, had he not a
Supreme Being to refer to; and well has it been said, that if there had
been no God, mankind would have been obliged to imagine one.
The
alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the
spirit of revenge natural to party dissension, which in different ages
and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a
frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and
permanent despotism.
