Nothing can now be believed which is seen in the newspaper. Truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle.

If you want to be successful, you must respect one rule: never lie to yourself.

No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth.

Lie to a liar, for lies are his coin; steal from a thief, for that is easy; lay a trap for a trickster and catch him at first attempt, but beware of an honest man.
