In response to Tangled Web posted by pink101:
It was Sir Walter Scott. Most famous for the novel Ivanhoe. It's actually: "Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive." As your mother told you, when you lie, you have to come up with a second lie to cover the first. And then a third. And fourth. And so on.
