...and be thought an idiot than to open it and remove all doubt.

Damn that's a good one.

Who said it?

Had to be Serge, that came up with that one

Abe Lincoln :)

Jane Fonda :biglaugh:

I don't know who said it, and there's nobody I want to suck up to by attributing it to them, so I'll just say it's been around since Moby Dick was a minnow.

They must be a touchy bunch over there.

Marcel Marceau?

I've seen it attributed to Abe Lincoln, Mark Twain and Ralph Waldo Emerson.
My pick would be Twain.

According to the Mark Twain museum, it was his :)
