Jackson

Famous quotes containing the word jackson:

    Live within your means, never be in debt, and by husbanding your money you can always lay it out well. But when you get in debt you become a slave. Therefore I say to you never involve yourself in debt, and become no man’s surety. If your friend is in distress, aid him if you have the means to spare. If he fails to be able to return it, it is only so much lost.
    —Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    Every diminution of the public burdens arising from taxation gives to individual enterprise increased power and furnishes to all the members of our happy confederacy new motives for patriotic affection and support.
    —Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    We’ve removed the ceiling above our dreams. There are no more impossible dreams.
    —Jesse Jackson (b. 1941)
