sorry to be a pain. Any other famous misquotes out there?

Great one for storming out in a huff after receiving invective, especially after having turned the other cheek repeatedly and doubly if you've humiliated yourself trying to give the other guy a face-saving exit option:
"I have humiliated myself. I have almost licked the boots of some gentlemen... Now, gentlemen, you have insulted me. ... When you are ready to apologize, I shall return."

John F. Kennedy:
Robert Armory, who had been at the dinner and who later worked in the Kennedy Administration recalled in an oral history at the JFK Library that when a speaker had likened McCarthy to the convicted Soviet spy Alger Hiss, JFK rose to his feet and declared "How dare you couple the name of a great American patriot with that of a traitor!" and walked out. The incident has never been denied by anyone who was there, and is accepted by JFK biographers Herbert Parmet, Thomas Reeves and Chris Matthews.
