Not a Jefferson quote, per a search at Monticello.org

Per a search at monticello.org, a canonical authority, that's a spurious quote.

Please provide a link as we can't find the reference at monticello.com
and do find it listed in several quote lists

I did provide a link: monticello.org (not .com, .org).

You can search at <a href="http://http://tjrs.monticello.org/>tjrs.monticello.org</a>. The quote isn't there. You might be able to get one of the librarians to confirm that it's not to be found.
