Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Keyes, such words voice observations we want made. Freud may never have said, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar," for example, but we certainly wish he had. For a misquote to become familiar it must come from a well-known mouth.

Keyes discovered that its real originator was a student named Jack.
