Who said, " dissention is the greatest form of patriotism" or something along those lines?

Question

i heard jessie ventura giving quotes on the radio. this was one of them i think he said it was thomas jefferson or ben franklin. i have looked and can't find it anywhere.

Answer 1

The true quote: "Dissent is the greatest form of Patriotism"

The one who actually said it was: Dorothy Hewitt Hutchington

The one getting the hype: Thomas Jefferson

Hutchington was a lady who strongly opposed WWII and rebelled against it and made this remark.  However, Jefferson is attributed with it because he had the same views when stating that resistance to goverment can be a valuable thing.
