You know, just like everyone knows that Kirk said “Beam me up Scotty” and Darth Vader said, “Luke, I am your father”. The thing is, none of those characters ever said any of those things. They said things that were similar, sure, but they never actually said those exact words, despite the fact most think that they did.
