"Why don't you come up and see me sometime?" Correct quote: "Why don't you come up sometime and see me? I'm home every evening." – Mae West (She Done Him Wrong) She switched the word order in her next film, I'm No Angel, where she does say "Come up and see me sometime", but without the "Why don't you". A mechanical mouse in a Tom and Jerry cartoon repeated "come up and see me sometime."
"I am not a crook" Richard Nixon Often attributed to his denial of any foreknowledge of the Watergate break-in, when in fact the question raised in a Press Conference was about his personal finances. Nixon's response, properly worded, was: "People have a right to know whether their President is a crook. Well, I'm not a crook."
