I thought this was so interesting! According to Quote Investigator, Marilyn Monroe, Eleanor Roosevelt, Anne Boleyn and a few others are all credited with being the source for this quote!

However, it was in a 1976 academic paper written by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich in the “American Quarterly” where we find the earliest evidence of the use of this quote.

Ulrich earned a PhD in History from the University of New Hampshire in 1980 and is now working as a professor of history at Harvard University.
