Great Quotes!!!

I found these in the daily e-mail from the Information Clearing House the other day:

=
"The care of human life and happiness and not their destruction is the first and only legitimate object of good government.": Thomas Jefferson
=
"Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action." : George Washington
