My favorite Lincoln quote is "Don't believe everything you read on the internet".

Plato said it more eloquently but he referenced Usenet.

Plato must be very old.

Ha! I saw a pretty good one along the lines of:

   70% of statistics are made up on the spot.
       - Abraham Lincoln

Isn't it: "70% of statistics on the Internet are made up on the spot." - Abraham Lincoln

68%, actually.

No, the internet bit is from Adolf Hitler, you Nazi.

My favorite Lincoln quote "I never said that about the internet".
