It always annoys me when that phrase is attributed to Donald Rumsfeld. The concept is much older than him, and the attribution to him gives him an air of wisdom

It always annoys me when that phrase is attributed to Donald Rumsfeld. The concept is much older than him, and the attribution to him gives him an air of wisdom that he doesn't deserve.
