The URL you posted was to a site that allows people to submit Quotes. It is not like an authoritative site like Bartletts that actually research what they publish. The man who submitted the quote to them was a fella from India. He obviously got the quote from errant internet mentions. You will not find it in any text about Thomas Jefferson.

The quote first appeared as a statement by Howard Zinn while being interviewed on the Thomas Paine website. It was his own statement, not a quote of Jefferson.

It is an Urban Myth.
