"The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere." | Quote by: | Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President |
