"What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not

warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit

of resistance?" --Thomas Jefferson to William Stephens Smith, 1787.

"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." --Thomas Jefferson to Abigail Adams, 1787.
