Different quote ?? (heh-heh)jrenwick wrote:From the Wikipedia entry for "Cardiff Giant":gahorn wrote:..."There's a fool born every minute." - P.T. Barnum, of Barnum & Bailey Circus.I learned this last weekend as the result of doing a crossword puzzle.As the newspapers reported Barnum's version of the story, David Hannum was quoted as saying, "There's a sucker born every minute" in reference to spectators paying to see Barnum's giant. Over time, the quotation has been misattributed to Barnum himself.
