I am for freedom of religion and against all maneuvers to bring about a legal ascendancy of one sect over another

Freedom of religion, freedom of the press, freedom of person under the protection of the habeas corpus; and trial by juries impartially selected, - these principles form the bright constellation which has gone before us

Religions are all alike -- founded upon fables and mythologies

Freedom, the first-born of science.

I predict future happiness for Americans, if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

The policy of the American government is to leave their citizens free, neither restraining nor aiding them in their pursuits.
