Who said "There are lies, damned lies, and statistics!" (if that is even

It sounds like Mark Twain, but I want to use it in class and I would like

Jim:
In Huff (1954). How to Lie with Statistics, he quotes Disraeli as saying,
"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics."
Hope that helps.
