Washington, DC In a history convention held in the nation's capitol, many facts came to light regarding some of history's most famous quotes.
For instance, John Paul Jones did say "Don't Give up the Ship!" but he added the line, "Sell it Instead!"
When Patrick Henry said "Give me liberty or give me death," history misplaced the part where he said, "On second thought, just give me liberty."
When FDR said, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself," he also said too low for the mic to pick up, "Fear itself and Nazis that is."
Lincoln said "A house divided cannot stand," but the end of the quote was ...unless it has steel construction."
Calvin Coolidge said "The business of America is Business." What he actually said was lost in the crowd noise. The reclusive Silent Cal actually said "the business of Americans should be to mind their own business."
