    Abso-bally-lutely. If all the misquotations from the Bible were laid end
to end, the universe would _have_ to be much larger.

    Obvious example (with Greek connexion - "hubris"): "pride cometh before
destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall". "Pride cometh before a
fall" is a misquote made *so* often!

    And, if you seek a mathematical connexion to avoid this becoming
off-topic: think of one <-> one, one <-> many, and/or many <-> many ...
