I'll add one...

G Burns - Say goodnight Gracie
G Allen - Goodnight Gracie

She never said that; only goodnight.

The majority of those seemed as near to the original intention as to be virtually identical. Like, for example, Darth Vader never saying "Luke, I am your father." Well, no... he only said "I am your father." HOLY SHIT. TIME TO CHANGE MY NAME AND MOVE TO NORTH DAKOTA. This list has approximately three real entries and a whole bunch of bullshit that EVERYONE ALREADY KNOWS. Clearly "nice guys finish last" isn't the same as "nice guys. finish last" ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

Some are close enough. But some are pretty far off what was actually said.

One that stands out is the Pailn one. And I'm no fan of her.

On a side note, that site is well designed for iPhone viewing.

That's because it was an SNL skit. I don't think anyone actually believes she said that.

umm actually many against her (and other political people) tend to believe all sorts of crap like this...like that Qayle "latin" quote.

Yeah, a lot of people, especially dipshits on Facebook, believe Palin said that. I'm also sick of girls (Usually the fat ugly ones) quoting Marylin Monroe on Facebook.

Wow some of those are almost depressing to know they arn't actually real. Some are good classics like "beam me up, scotty!" and "Houston we have a problem!". Guess it does not stop from using them anyway. :p
