“I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.”

– Thomas Jefferson

I have two full books on quotes from Thomas Jefferson, so he is indeed one of my heroes who you frequently find on RJsCorner. Jefferson was an avid reader and letter writer. It is ironic that one of his lifelong pen pals was John Adams who was almost the political opposite of him. They both died on the same day which was 50 years to the day after the Declaration of Independence.
