"Well-behaved women rarely make history"

Some people think that the quote, "Well-behaved women rarely make history," was first spoken by Marilyn Monroe, but they couldn't be more wrong. It was actually said by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, a University of New Hampshire student who later went on to be a Harvard professor. Marilyn Monroe has been mis-quoted on a number of occasions- including "If you can't handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best."

***As an added bonus, the phrase "Luke, I am your father," is never uttered in any Star Wars movie- the correct line is "No, I am your father."
