It was not Voltaire, damn it

It is high time that we put to rest this falsehood once and for all: the saying ""I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" was never said or written by Voltaire, EVER. This was written in a biography of Voltaire by the American Evelyn Hall back in 1906.  OK? Stop attributing it to Voltaire.
