Variations: None known. Sources consulted: 1.Papers of Thomas Jefferson: Digital Edition 2.Retirement Papers 3.Thomas Jefferson: Papers and Biographies Collections, Hathi Trust Digital Library Earliest known appearance in print: No known appearances in print. Other attributions: None known. Status: This quotation has not been found in any of the writings of Thomas Jefferson. Comments: This quotation seems to have originated in an article of the same title on PicktheBusiness.com.1 It is an accurate paraphrase of Jefferson's views on education, but the exact phrasing seems to belong to the author of the article, and not Jefferson. The article title appears to have been mistaken by others as a direct quotation from Jefferson's 1816 letter to Charles Yancey, which is mentioned in the article, but the exact quotation does not appear in that letter or in any other known Jefferson writings. - Anna Berkes, March 30, 2010; revised August 24, 2011 Further Sources •Jefferson to Charles Yancey, January 6, 1816, in Ford, 10:1-4.

If so, let's hear it. Let's also hear from those that agree. There are those who say that was Jefferson's position, and others who say it was not. Jefferson made a number of enemies, some of which exist today who are attempting to fabicate evidence or revise history to detract from him and will reference each other exclusively to in attempts to construct a momentum in line with critical theory. I never met the man or received correspondence from him. Jefferson was an intelligent man and one of this nations founders. Other than that I can not contribute any solid irrefutable evidence. rlk  posted on  2015-07-30   5:44:48 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   Replies to Comment # 3. #4. To: rlk (#3) I never met the man or received correspondence from him. So you disregard historical records as being reliable sources of information and facts upon which one can make conclusions?
