Heaven will be no heaven to me if I do not meet my wife there.
I hope and trust to meet you in Heaven, both white and black-both white and black.
Heaven will be heaven only if my wife is there.
Oh, do not cry - be good children and we will all meet in heaven.
Be good children, and we shall all meet in Heaven. I want to meet you all, white and black, in Heaven. Our Federal Union! It must be preserved! [Toast at a celebration of Thomas Jefferson's birthday, April 13 1830]
