George Washington Quotes"To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace."—Jan. 8, 1790 "If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." "Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force! Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." "A people... who are possessed of the spirit of commerce, who see and who will pursue their advantages may achieve almost anything." "Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth." "The basis of our political systems is the right of the people to make and to alter their constitutions of government." "Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company." "Arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness." "But if we are to be told by a foreign Power ... what we shall do, and what we shall not do, we have Independence yet to seek, and have contended hitherto for very little."
