Original Note:
NNN - To the OP claiming Elon is misquoting Alcuin. Alcuin did not coin the proverb, he merely attempted to refute it, "An early reference to the expression is in a letter from Alcuin to Charlemagne in 798." Elon is not misquoting anyone, he is merely using an old proverb. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vox_Populi,_Vox_Dei
