“Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.”

“I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it.”

“Educate your children to self-control, to the habit of holding passion and prejudice and evil tendencies subject to an upright and reasoning will, and you have done much to abolish misery from their future and crimes from society.”

“He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money.”

“But, ah! Think what you do when, I you run in debt, you give to another power over your liberty.”
