Truth

"The public is not cognizant of the real value of education, and does not realize that education as a social force is not receiving the kind of attention it has the right to expect in a democracy." Edward Bernays

"There can be no higher law in journalism than to tell the truth and to shame the devil." Walter Lippmann

"No one in this world, so far as I know - and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me - has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people." H. L. Mencken

"Stay true to yourself and don't bend" Unbekannt

"For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong." Henry Louis Mencken

"King of the animals — as thou hast described him — I should rather say king of the beasts, thou being the greatest — because thou hast spared slaying them, in order that they may give thee their children for the benefit of the gullet, of which thou hast attempted to make a sepulchre for all animals; and I would say still more, if it were allowed me to speak the entire truth." Leonardo da Vinci

"The law of attraction should be taken with a grain of salt." Unbekannt

"You may be wrong about an idea, but you cannot be wrong with your heart." Fjodor Dostojewski

"Truth was never the highest priority of human society. It was the highest priority of some individuals, but never of society as a whole — because society as a whole does not function on the basis of truth. If you take two of the most powerful institutions of humankind — science and the scientific community, and religion and churches — neither of them has truth as their chief value. For individuals, yes. But as institutions, no. The chief value of science is power. The chief value of religion is order — organization. Religion is all about maintaining order in society, and science is mainly about gaining power." Yuval Noah Harari
