In the below classic 'Battle of Wits' scene from the movie The Princess Bride, Vizzini was *dead* wrong on his advice to "never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line".
(For anyone not familiar with this movie and/or the full sequence of events which lead up to this scene's punch line, here's a link to a full-scene length clip.)
Are Vizzini, outgoing Defense Secretary Robert Gates, and STRATFOR also wrong about getting involved in a land war in Asia?
Alexander the Great, for one, may possibly wish to posthumously beg to differ.
