http://mentalfloss.com/article/62774/where-does-phrase-nice-guys-finish-last-come
https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/List_of_misquotations "Nice guys finish last.” Leo Durocher (1906–1991), US baseball manager. As reported in the biography, Nice Guys Finish Last, (by Leo Durocher, with Ed Linn, Simon & Schuster, 1975), Durocher's remark was his reply to being asked his opinion of the 1946 New York Giants. He actually said, “Take a look at them. All nice guys. They’ll finish last. Nice guys – finish last.” Elision of the relative pronoun ("who") in the final sentence turned an evaluation into a declaration that nice people are doomed to failure. --- Dont be ridiculous.

That's not how it works. Out of context is what you're looking for. Either way no one cares what the original quote or context was. I highly doubt that was the first time someone said the phrase either. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all ... Copied to Clipboard!

it's good to know that quote came from sports and not how people interpret life/relationships like they do now.
