»No Sports« hat Churchill nie gesagt

Who doesn't know Churchill's famous rejection of physical exercise? Or Einstein's grim prophecy: "If the bees disappear, humanity will have only four years left to live." Or Galileo's last words: "And yet it moves!" What all these statements have in common is that they are completely fabricated. Martin Rasper traces the origins of the most famous false quotes. He reveals what was actually said – or not – follows the history behind these famous statements, and explains how they came to be. A book full of aha and oh-so moments, for reference, browsing, contemplation, and wonder. With a foreword by Goethe.
