RE: “An educated public is the KEYSTONE of our arch of government.” — Thomas Jefferson

I don’t recall having seen that quote in prior discussions of “keystone” ... was I missing it? That is possibly the best translation I’ve seen!

It’s an accurate paraphrase of Jefferson’s views on education, but the exact wording seems to belong to the meme creator or the author of a tweet, and not Jefferson.
