"you can fool some of the people all of the time,
you can fool all of the people some of the time,
but you can't fool all of the people all of the time"
- Lincoln -
It is a bit dated though, absolutely no connection to present day sadly...

I've never tried searching for it to see if it's true, but a friend of mine who read the Anarchist's Cookbook in highschool says the quote about omlettehood in my signature was in there, attributed to Mao.
I like it, even if he didn't say it.
