Original Note:
This quote cannot be attributed to Jefferson; however, the idea can be found in Jefferson's words in the Declaration of Independence, in which he states of citizens living under a tyrannical government that ''it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government. https://www.monticello.org/research-education/thomas-jefferson-encyclopedia/when-injustice-becomes-law-resistance-becomes-duty-spurious-quotation/
