Thomas Jefferson learned to be the unassuming diplomat. He used expressions such as: "In my opinion..." "As I perceive it at the present" and other expressions that helped him avoid mortification for having made statements which may have been later proven to be made while misapprehending. "our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost." Thomas Jefferson to Dr. James Currie, January 28, 1786 "nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle." Thomas Jefferson to John Norvell, June 11, 1807
