Nice guys finish last.

Leo Durocher

Actual Quote: Durcher later claimed that what he said, referring to crosstown rivals the New York Giants, was: “Take a look at them. They’re all nice guys, but they’ll finish last. Nice guys. Finish last.” Pictured: Durocher (center), Dolph Camilli, and Lyn Lary at Ebbets Field in 1939.

Here, in hopes of setting the proverbial record straight, LIFE offers other famous quotes — both written and spoken — that, in fact, were never written nor spoken.
