Quotations
Lie
There are three types of lies -- lies, damned lies, and statistics.
-Benjamin Disraeli
The trouble with lying and deceiving is that their efficiency depends entirely upon a clear notion of the truth that the liar and deceiver wishes to hide. In this sense, truth, even if it does not prevail in public, possesses an ineradicable primacy over all falsehoods.
-Hannah Arendt
The only thing worse than a liar is a liar that's also a hypocrite!
-Tennessee Williams
