I never told my own religion nor scrutinized that of another. I never attempted to make a convert, nor wished to change another's creed. I am satisfied that yours must be an excellent religion to have produced a life of such exemplary virtue and correctness. For it is in our lives, and not from our words, that our religion must be judged. ✨ Thomas Jefferson, Joyce Appleby, Terence Ball (1999). Jefferson: Political Writings, p.399, Cambridge University Press
