Help with quotation Feb 5, 2006 19:06:00 GMT -4

I’m trying to remember a quotation and who said it. It went something like, “the exact opposite of what is commonly believed is often the truth”. I thought Mark Twain said it, but that could be a false memory and he has had many quotes falsely attributed to him.

I tried finding it with Google and a few quotation sites but didn’t have any luck.

"I think we ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt"

Bertrand Russell

To paraphrase Mark Twain "The CTists' claims are both convincing and true, unfortunately what's convincing is not true, and what's true is not convincing"
