Garson O'Toole, the author of the book, is a journalist and creator of the popular Quote Investigator website, which thousands of people around the world turn to for help and assistance. And the main question is this: do prominent people whose quotes are so widely distributed both in the print media and on the Internet really own these or those sayings? And the answer is most often negative.
Garson O'Toole analyzes common quotes attributed to celebrities - from Abraham Lincoln to Anton Chekhov, from Aristotle to Woody Allen. He is trying to find their origins and understand what caused the confusion, what are the reasons for the appearance of false quotes and aphorisms. He calls them "error mechanisms" and explains in detail where, when, and why the misunderstanding occurred.
