“If a meme is dank, a man is not only right to steal it, he is obligated to do so.-Thomas Jefferson”
“If a meme is dank, a man is not only right to steal it, he is obligated to do so.—Alexander Hamilton/Thomas Jefferson” is a jocular quotation that has been printed on many images. This is a comic variation of a quote usually credited (incorrectly) to Thomas Jefferson—“If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so.” Of course, neither Alexander Hamilton (1757-1804) nor Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) ever said anything about internet memes.
