Interestingly enough, the first time the quote was attributed to Marie Antoinette in writing was… to deny that she said it! And that was done 50 years after the revolution rippled through the country. So, it appears to be that this misunderstanding is just a rumor that’s traveled to us all the way from the 18th century.
