“Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.
Source: Thomas Jefferson, letter to Nathaniel Macon, 12 January 1819
This is a genuine Thomas Jefferson line, not anonymous. Jefferson wrote 'honesty is the 1st. chapter in the book of wisdom' in a letter to Nathaniel Macon dated 12 January 1819; the Jefferson editorial projects treat it as authentic rather than as one of the many spurious Jefferson quotations. The corpus text also carries a stray leading curly quotation mark that should be stripped. Author should be changed from Unknown to Thomas Jefferson. | Suggested reattribution: Thomas Jefferson
