1/8
La verità di una proposizione non ha niente a che vedere con la sua credibilità. E viceversa.

La logica è un modo sistematico di sbagliare in tutta sicurezza.
3/8
La gelosia è una malattia, l'amore è salute.

You can sway a thousand men by appealing to their prejudices quicker than you can convince one man by logic.
5/8
Ricorda però che la tua arma migliore è quella tra le orecchie e sotto il cuoio capelluto, a patto che sia carica.
6/8
In the absence of clearly-defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it.
7/8
I think perhaps of all the things a police state can do to its citizens, distorting history is possibly the most pernicious.
8/8
Secrecy is the keystone to all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy and censorship. When any government or church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, "This you may not read, this you must not know," the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man who has been hoodwinked in this fashion; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, whose mind is free. No, not the rack nor the atomic bomb, not anything. You can't conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him.
