Cicero’s actual quotation was:

qui dolorem ipsum, quia dolor sit, amet, consectetur, adipisci velit, sed quia non numquam eius modi tempora incidunt, ut labore et dolore magnam aliquam quaerat voluptatem. ut enim ad minima veniam, quis nostrum exercitationem ullam corporis suscipit laboriosam, nisi ut aliquid ex ea commodi consequatur? quis autem vel eum iure reprehenderit, qui in ea voluptate velit esse, quam nihil molestiae consequatur, vel illum, qui dolorem eum fugiat, quo voluptas nulla pariatur?

The version you cite is the one used by typesetters. It isn’t supposed to mean anything — that way the eye focuses on the type rather than the meaning.

Yeah. The Lorum ipsum template...

I was interested to note that part of it actually meant something. I should have specified that.
