Top 5 quotes from Thomas Paine
"Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one."
"When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon."
"I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church."
"Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it."
"It is impossible to calculate the moral mischief, if I may so express it, that mental lying has produced in society. When a man has so far corrupted and prostituted the chastity of his mind as to subscribe his professional belief to things he does not believe he has prepared himself for the commission of every other crime."
Top 5 quotes from Time
"It is only the modern that ever becomes old-fashioned."
"Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils."
"Neither a wise man nor a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him."
"Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity."
"We have it in our power to begin the world over again."
