Being a buzzkill is an unfortunate but necessary part of my job. As much as I know first-hand the joy of finding that perfect quote to emphasise a point, I also know that all too often said quote is too good to be true.
Some errors I’ve weeded out during the editing process over the years: “Be the change you wish to see in the world”; there’s no written trace of Mahatma Gandhi having said this. “Jaw, jaw is better than war, war”; that was Harold Macmillan rather than Winston Churchill. “Let China sleep. For when she wakes, the world will tremble”; this wasn’t from Napoleon Bonaparte but a line from the 1963 Charlton Heston film 55 Days at Peking.
