President Jefferson

Famous quotes containing the words president and/or jefferson:

“... a friend told me that she had read of a woman who had knitted a wash rag for President Wilson. She was eighty years old and her friends thought it remarkable that she could knit a wash rag! I thought that if a woman of eighty could knit a wash rage for a Democratic President it behooved one of ninety-six to make something more than a wash rag for a Republican President.”
—Maria D. Brown (1827–1927)

“No stile of writing is so delightful as that which is all pith, which never omits a necessary word, nor uses an unnecessary one.”
