Truth

"For the greater good": the phrase that  always precedes the greatest evil." Jakub Bożydar Wiśniewski

"We had accepted some half truths and had stopped searching for the whole truths. The principal half truths were that medical research had stamped out the great killers of the past – tuberculosis, diphtheria, pneumonia, puerperal sepsis, etc. The data on deaths from tuberculosis show that the mortality rate from this disease has been declining steadily since the middle of the 19th century and was not altered measurably by the discovery of the tubercle bacillus, the advent of the tuberculin test, the appearance of BCG vaccination, the widespread use of mass screening, the intensive anti-tuberculosis campaigns, or the discovery of streptomycin. Similar trends in mortality have been reported with respect to diphtheria, scarlet fever, rheumatic fever, pertussis, measles, and many others." Edward Harold Kass

"The Ten Commandments are for lame brains. The first five are solely for the benefit of the priests and the powers that be; the second five are half truths, neither complete nor adequate." Robert A. Heinlein

"I just didn’t want to be fat. I got tired of breathing hard. I got tired of my joints hurting. I just got tired of being lied to" Waka Flocka Flame

"I never wonder to see men wicked, but I often wonder to see them not ashamed." Jonathan Swift

"Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody's face but their own." Jonathan Swift

"Circumstances don't make the man, they only reveal him to himself." Epiktet

"Religion is a fraud, but it must be maintained for the masses." Friedrich der Große

"Freedom of speech is unnecessary if the people to whom it is granted do not think for themselves." Mokokoma Mokhonoana

"Of all the organizations that I have dealt with, i have only seen one that lied. It was NASA, the reason they lie, of course, is because they are wrapped up in a higher calling. In their eyes these are white lies. They tell lies in order to do what has to be done. Because in the end the result will be for the betterment of the public. So they are not lying from evil. But, nevertheless, they are lying." Jay Keyworth II

"Anything the medical profession says, do the opposite 99 percent of the time and you’ll be right" Aajonus Vonderplanitz

"Dissident speech doesn't have to be primarily tactical or rhetorical in nature, but it should be authentic and honest." Mattias Desmet

"When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims, religion. No contest. No contest. Religion. Religion easily has the greatest bullshit story ever told. Think about it. Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time! But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money! Religion takes in billions of dollars, they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. Now, you talk about a good bullshit story. Holy Shit!" George Carlin

"When deeds speak, words are nothing." Pierre-Joseph Proudhon
