quotes

I'm saddened that people don't check the origin of quotes before they use them. Mark Twain, Einstein, George Washington etc. have been quoted saying things they never ever said. Yes, the computerised age makes the dissemination of fake quotes and news much faster but it's nothing new -- Just faster.

The Internet used properly can still be used to separate the wheat from the chaff but it takes due diligence that sometimes is best left to a handy librarian -- I know I do.
