Thomas Jefferson actually said...

"I look to the diffusion of light and education as the resource most to be relied on for ameliorating our condition, promoting our virtues, and advancing the happiness of man."

"The right to trial by jury is the only anchor yet imagined by man by which a government can be held to the principles of its constitution."

"If people let the government decide what foods to eat and what medicines to take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls who live under tyranny."

"If we think the people are not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it away from them but to inform their discretion."
