"The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring
liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the
truth"

Google agreed with that spelling...? Spelled that way, I came up with
a different person - the one I'd prefer to have met!
Works by Adah Isaacs Menken (1835-1868)
1868 Infelicita. Having caused a sensation in 1861 by her semi-nude
performance in the title role of Byron's Mazeppa, the flamboyant
actress provides a collection of equally provocative autobiographical
poems.

Nope, I overlooked that. THOUGH, there probably is that spelling somewhere
