It shows up in various places going back to the 1970’s including occasional
attributions to Churchill which seem to be unsubstantiated.
Most recently, it was used/popularized by Rahm Emanuel when he was White House
Chief of Staff and a lot of the current online references are to him.

Subject: [ChurchillChat] Verification of a Quote Attributed to Churchill
I have had an inquiry from a visitor to www.winstonchurchill.org
<http://www.winstonchurchill.org> about a quote, which like many on the
internet, is attributed to Churchill. I have checked both of Richard
Langworth's books as well as searched some of Martin GIlbert as well as a few
other titles, but have turned up with nothing. I have also inquired with the
Churchill Archives one of their archivists was not able to source it.
'Never let a good crisis go to waste.'
Would anyone on the list have any ideas on this one?
Thanks for the assistance.
