A quote from TJdavidp (54)in #thomas • 9 years ago "I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery" —Thomas Jefferson #jefferson #quote #slavery
I guess if you want freedom you require skirmish.
I think this is a beautiful quote. Too bad the fact that he owned slaves somewhat takes away from the vigour of it but a beautiful quote nonetheless
That is soooo true....how ironic.
reminds me of the movie 'braveheart': Freeeeeeeeeedoooooooom...
@davidp i agree :)
Sure, we need real freedom! Freedom is the very important for people including me :D
Amen to that!
Freedom is worth fighting for
I prefer (dangerous) freedom over (peaceful) slavery.
peaceful slavery?a slave is a slave!
I think it's more figurative, as in "a slave to a system". As opposed to being in actual chains.
Awesome quote sir and you are right freedom in every condition is good over slavery.
Really good words of this quote
