“All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.”

--Thomas Jefferson

There is perhaps no man alive who has uttered as many profound thoughts as the great Thomas Jefferson. Here, the Founding Father and all-around intellectual giant explains what can happen to a society if the best among men sit quietly. These are words to contemplate here as we see the social unrest unfold in Northern Africa.
