"Instead of considering what is past, however, we are to look forward and prepare for the future."  Thomas Jefferson
This Quote by Thomas Jefferson was to Edward Stevens 1780 in the midst of the American Revolution The Declaration of Independence was already written out No point thinking back and speculating what it might have been if they didn’t revolt You can’t change the past! Better to think about the future and what you could do to make it better for yourself, and everyone else
If you always dwell on the past you’ll never get anywhere No one can accurately predict the future But at least you could guess and try to prepare Thomas Jefferson did exactly that, no one could say the for sure the Americans could succeed but he went ahead and wrote the Declaration of Independence before the war ended He planned ahead, Better safe then sorry He told everyone exactly what kind of a government United States would have, eliminated the chaos when people would try to get things in their own advantage once the common goal was reached
Still holds true today… Even today everyone in school is taught to plan ahead We learned that instead of regretting all the massive consumption of oil we could look into the future and plan ahead What could we do during/after the peak oil?  We looked into the future and were taught that by reducing, reusing and recycling we can make the future better or at least minimize the damage we could have caused.
Thomas Jefferson As one of the founding fathers of the United States, he was the one that wrote most of the Declaration of Independence He believed the everyone had the right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. He also believed all men are created equal and had inalienable rights “We finally completed what should soon be America’s ticket to freedom.” -talonsveronica “All Talons Students Have The Right To Express There Thoughts and Showcase Their Ideas!” -talonssara
