I hope it helps you through this moment. I posted on a similar topic, where I felt bad after correcting my boss, who was happily quoting Einstein on something he never said. She was using the quote to make a valid point, I was frustrated because I knew he didn't say those words, but I didn't ingratiate myself with her, and in my wisdom made myself feel and appear "stupid". https://inmylife.substack.com/p/einsteinian-drift
