Who enjoys research? I need to cite a quote.

Advertisements [?]

"All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent." - Thomas Jefferson

Jefferson is credited with this quote all over the net. But I cannot find when and under what circumstance he said or wrote it. Does anyone know?

This is in my dissertation. I would really like to be more precise than Bartlett's Quotations.

Thanks!
