And about that Jefferson quote? Do I even need to tell you how this ends?

Earliest known appearance in print: 1986

Status: This exact quotation has not been found in any of the writings of Thomas Jefferson. It bears a very vague resemblance to Jefferson’s comment in a prospectus for his translation of Destutt de Tracy’s Treatise on Political Economy
