"If American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

​

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies."

​

~ Thomas Jefferson

​​

"History records that money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and its issuance."

​

~ James Madison

​​

"The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace, and conspire against it in times of adversity.  It is more despotic than monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy.  I see in the near future, a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country.  Corporations have been enthroned, an era of corruption will follow and the money power of the country will endeavor and prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people, until the wealth is aggregated into a few hands and the republic is destroyed."

​

~ Abraham Lincoln

​

"The death of Lincoln was a disaster for Christendom.  There was no man in the United States great enough to wear his boots and the bankers went anew to grab the riches.  I fear that foreign bankers with their craftiness and torturous tricks will entirely control the exuberant riches of America and use it to systematically corrupt civilisation."

​

~ Otto Bismark

​

"I care not what puppet is placed upon the throne of England to rule the Empire on which the sun never sets.  The man who controls the British money supply controls the British Empire, and I control the British money supply."

​

~ Nathan Rothschild

​

"Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately.  Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacturing, are afraid of something.  They know that there is a power somewhere so organised, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it."

​

~ Woodrow Wilson

​

(After signing the Federal Reserve Act)

"I have unwittingly ruined my country.  All our activities are in the hands of a few men.  We have come to be one of the most completely controlled governments in the civilised world.  No longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men."

~ Woodrow Wilson
