Andrew Jackson quotes

Andrew Jackson said that life itself was less precious than honor. – The slanderer is far worse than the murderer because the murderer took only life whereas the slanderer took honor.

"Any man worth his salt will stick up for what he believes right, but it takes a slightly better man to acknowledge instantly and without reservation that he is in error.” Andrew Jackson

"Every good citizen makes his country's honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious but as sacred. He is willing to risk his life in its defence and is conscious that he gains protection while he gives it."

"Take time to deliberate; but when the time for action arrives, stop thinking and go in."

“The brave man inattentive to his duty, is worth little more to his country than the coward who deserts in the hour of danger." - Andrew Jackson
