Misattributed quotations (for gits and shiggles)

The idea is this: Take a quote from pop culture and attribute it to the wrong author, philosopher, artist, historical figure, you get the idea.

If you've done your job well, the end result should give you and perhaps a few others here a mild chuckle. Sorry, no guffawing. This isn't really that type of exercise.

I'll start.
