It's not really a fake quote, but one converted into something our dumbed-down society can comprehend.
Like Ford's quotes on the Protocols.
This is like saying children's bibles are all fake.
They are, yeah. You can't just pervert the message.

As far as I know, religious educators always use the same Bible texts for adults and children. However, children are given dumbed-down coloring books about "stories from the Bible." I have never known a child to confuse a coloring book with an actual Bible. Maybe I am ignorant. Maybe there are Christian congregations that rewrite the Bible for kids. (It certainly would help when dodging questions like "What does 'adultery' mean?")
Now I am curious. Are there any examples of such "children's bibles" online?
Edit: Books like: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/67864/the-golden-childrens-bible-by-j-grispino/9780307165206/
and
https://biblehub.com/childrens/
do not appear to falsify the text; they appear to be reasonably accurate translations.
