Is qui scit plurimum, rumor.

That most knowing of persons – gossip.

Letter XLIII: On the relativity of fame, line 1.Seneca the Younger
» Seneca the Younger - all quotes »
In the last few decades, a terribly pernicious rumor has been circulated by the press. It claims, exhibiting a level of stupidity heretofore considered impossible, that a human being could crawl through the arteries of a blue whale. Of course, nothing could be farther from the truth. I do not know why this deleterious rumor has been systematically repeated, but its very existence is an ugly cancer upon the face of science.
Jacques-Yves Cousteau
Sanus est, qui scit quid sit insania, quippe insania scire se non potest, non magis quam caecitas se videre.
Apuleius
The subject of a rumor is always the last to hear it.
Stefan Zweig
If a rumor comes out that I’m gay, I could care less. There are so many worse things that they could be saying.
James Van Der Beek
Rumor is rarely more interesting than fact, but it is always more readily available.
