Just thought I'd share a clever quote I saw tonight. It gives me license to be wrong and look smart at the same time. Hesketh Pearson said:
Only educated people have the right to misquote things. Someone who reads a lot never quotes correctly, obviously because they read too much.

Hence the title.
Thought about calling it, "(Un)Subtle Irony". If you're pointing out irony it's not necessarily subtle anymore.
...and just to do Ms. Pearson justice: real quote.
"To err is humour." Lord, I might be smart, too!
Clearly you are; you absolutely butchered that quote!
