Reason.

Peale (Rembrandt), Thomas Jefferson, 1805


If there be any among us who would wish to dissolve this Union, or to change its republican form, let them stand undisturbed as monuments of the safety with which error of opinion may be tolerated, where reason is left free to combat it.

Thomas Jefferson, from his Inaugural Address, March 4, 1801
