Where does “Never Apologise Never Explain” comes?

Yes, We shouldn’t believe everything that’s on the internet but here’s what I found at
http://www.stornowayfreenews.com/2002arts/im_sorry!.htm

Everyone knows that to apologise is a good thing - it’s just that most of us cannot bring ourselves to do it. “Sorry” is still the hardest and, therefore, rarest word in the world. Most seem to adopt the philosophy of Jackie Fisher, the First World War Admiral, who said, “Never apologise, never explain”.

I wonder did T? got it from Jackie Fisher..?

And I do know that “Never complain, never explain” is the motto of our ‘dear’ Queen of England.
