Too many people got this one wrong. This is the famous quote from Nathan Hale just before he was hung by the British as a spy.

Nathan Hale. I learned that before my elementary school even started history classes. Since I loved reading, my parents got a set of educational books to prepare my for future terms in school. I'll thank them to my dying day. 😊😎👨

Hale, when schools actually taught history in the classroom. 5-6 decades ago.
