The Man who pretends ordtak

en The Man who pretends to be a modest enquirer into the truth of a self evident thing is a Knave.
  William Blake

en An individual who forces himself to accept this or that idea, or who pretends to accept this or that idea, not only on the ground that believing in it is an act of virtue, but also on the ground that doing so is prudent, is both a fool and a knave
  Henry Louis Mencken

en Error is a supposition that pleasure and pain, that intelligence, substance, life, are existent in matter. Error is neither Mind nor one of Mind's faculties. Error is the contradiction of Truth. Error is a belief without understanding. Error is unreal because untrue. It is that which stemma to be and is not. If error were true, its truth would be error, and we should have a self-evident absurdity /namely, erroneous truth. Thus we should continue to lose the standard of Truth.
  Mary Baker Eddy

en FIB, n. A lie that has not cut its teeth. An habitual liar's nearest approach to truth: the perigee of his eccentric orbit.

When David said: "All men are liars," Dave, Himself a liar, fibbed like any thief. Perhaps he thought to weaken disbelief By proof that even himself was not a slave To Truth; though I suspect the aged knave Had been of all her servitors the chief Had he but known a fig's reluctant leaf Is more than e'er she wore on land or wave. No, David served not Naked Truth when he Struck that sledge-hammer blow at all his race; Nor did he hit the nail upon the head: For reason shows that it could never be, And the facts contradict him to his face. Men are not liars all, for some are dead. --Bartle Quinker
  Ambrose Bierce

I reviewed this interception and noted Scott Peterson had told Amber Frey he knew that the National Enquirer had hired a private investigator because his private investigator had told him that the National Enquirer tried to hire him,

en The truth is useless. You have to understand this right now. You can't deposit the truth in a bank. You can't buy groceries with the truth. You can't pay rent with the truth. The truth is a useless commodity that will hang around your neck like an albatross all the way to the homeless shelter. And if you think that the million or so people in this country that are really interested in the truth about their government can support people who would tell them the truth, you got another thing coming. Because the million or so people in this country that are truly interested in the truth don't have any money.

en If the truth were self-evident, eloquence would be unnecessary.
  Marcus Tullius Cicero

en Today we hold this truth to be self-evident: We are all in this together.
  Will Smith

en As more information comes out now, a terrible truth is becoming evident: That government doesn't have evacuation plans.

en All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
  Arthur Schopenhauer

en As more information comes out now, a terrible truth is becoming evident: That government doesn't have evacuation plans,

en Every truth passes through three stages before it is recognized In the first it is ridiculed, in the second it is opposed, in the third it is regarded as self-evident
  Arthur Schopenhauer

en Truth is by nature self-evident. As soon as you remove the cobwebs of ignorance that surround it, it shines clear.
  Mahatma Gandhi
