QUOTE
"The nice guys are all over there, in seventh place."
MISQUOTE
“Nice guys finish last.”
This quotation is attributed to the Brooklyn Dodgers manager Leo Durocher in 1946, referring to the Dodgers' bitter rivals, the New York Giants, who were in seventh place at the time, but seventh place actually was second-to-last place. How this quotation leaped from the realm of baseball to the realm of romantic relationships, spawning actual clinical syndromes and psychological terms, is anyone's guess.
