Thomas Jefferson Quotes:

Ocupation: 3rd U.S. President

Life: April 13, 1743 - July 4, 1826

Birthday: April 13

Death: July 4

In a free society with a government based on reason, it is inevitable that there will be no uniform opinion about important issues. Those accustomed to suppression and control by governmental authority see this as leading only to chaos. But a government of the people requires difference of opinion in order to discover truth and to take advantage of the opportunity that only understanding brings.
