“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.”
― Walter Langer

“Make it a rule never to give a child a book you would not read yourself.”
― George Bernard Shaw

“′Classic′ - a book which people praise and don't read.”
― Mark Twain

“The preachers and lecturers deal with men of straw, as they are men of straw themselves. Why, a free-spoken man, of sound lungs, cannot draw a long breath without causing your rotten institutions to come toppling down by the vacuum he makes. Your church is a baby-house made of blocks, and so of the state.

...The church, the state, the school, the magazine, think they are liberal and free! It is the freedom of a prison-yard.”
― Henry David Thoreau, I to Myself: An Annotated Selection from the Journal of Henry D. Thoreau
