Who said these words and When
“I believe the banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered”

Thomas Jefferson 1778
And what about these…
“The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be replenished, Public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest our Nation become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance”

Jules Verne – “There is nothing more “There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has powerful than an idea whose time has come”….come”….
Einstein on IMAGINATION….
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world”
Albert Einstein 1879 - 1955
“You look at things and ask - why?
but I dream of things that never
were and ask -
George Bernard Shaw
why not?”
