It isn't enough to talk about peace; one must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it; one must work at it.

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

It is the nature of truth in general, as of some ores in particular, to be richest when most superficial.

If you have no critics you'll likely have no success.
