“There are some upon this earth of yours," returned the Spirit, "who lay claim to know us, and who do their deeds of passion, pride, ill-will, hatred, envy, bigotry, and selfishness in our name, who are as strange to us and all our kith and kin, as if they had never lived. Remember that, and charge their doings on themselves, not us.”
― Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol

“Be on your guard whenever you hear the words ‘fake news’: it may be nothing more than the new term of abuse for inconvenient facts.”

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”

“The Nazis, fearful of having their gross inhumanity disclosed to the German people and to the world, came up with a plan to destroy the credibility of the mainstream media. To reports they didn’t like they applied the term Lügenpresse, or lying press. It worked for a time, enabling the Nazi propaganda machine to distribute its message and successfully conceal the unpleasant truth of their despicable actions. It bears an uncomfortable resemblance to what happens in our politics today. Be on your guard whenever you hear the words ‘fake news’: it may be nothing more than the new term of abuse for inconvenient facts.”
