"HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM."

This was never spoken by Jim Lovell on the Apollo 13. But Tom Hanks does say it in the movie.

"BEAM ME UP, SCOTTY."

Captain Kirk never said this exact phrase, although he did urge Scotty on more than one occasion to get him back to the ship.

Quote: “I cannot tell a lie. It was I who chopped down the cherry tree.”

Most of us probably heard this story growing up. The story told of a young George Washington chopping down a cherry tree and when confronted by his father, this is the famous quote.

However, in actuality, Washington never said this. The story was first told in the 1800s by biographer Parson Weems.

The tree in question was never chopped down. This version of the story came from a distant cousin, an unnamed woman, who told the story for truth in order to make Washington look better. The biographer used this story in his book, even though he knew it was unsubstantiated.

"To Gild The Lilly" is a quote from William Shakespeare.

Hmmm, or is it?

On closer examination, one will find that William Shakespeare never said these words at all. Rather, the actual quote is “To gild refined gold, to paint the lily," which came from Shakespeare's King John.
