Quizá los pensamientos que expongo en las siguientes páginas aún no están en boga ni tienen el favor general. El viejo hábito de no pensar que algo está mal puede dar la sensación de que está bien, y genera en un primer momento el impulso de defender las costumbres. Pero el tumulto pronto se apacigua.

Additional quotes by Thomas Paine

Public money ought to be touched with the most scrupulous consciousness of honour. It is not the produce of riches only, but of the hard earnings of labour and poverty. It is drawn even from the bitterness of want and misery. Not a beggar passes, or perishes in the streets, whose mite is not in that mass.
