Unethical advertising uses falsehoods to deceive the public; ethical advertising uses truth to deceive the public  (Falsehoods Quotes) The dictum that truth always triumphs over persecution is one of the pleasant falsehoods which men repeat after one another till they pass into commonplaces, but which all experience refutes  (Falsehoods Quotes) Vulgarity is the conduct of other people, just as falsehoods are the truths of other people  (Falsehoods Quotes) The idea that truth always triumphs over persecution is one of those pleasant falsehoods, which most experience refutes. History is teeming with instances of truth put down by persecution. If not put down forever, it may be set back for centuries  (Falsehoods Quotes) It’s a great mistake, I think, to put children off with falsehoods and nonsense, when their growing powers of observation and discrimination excite in them a desire to know about things  (Falsehoods Quotes) The very hirelings of the press, whose trade it is to buoy up the spirits of the people. have uttered falsehoods so long, they have played off so many tricks, that their budget seems, at last, to be quite empty  (Falsehoods Quotes) A truth that disheartens because it is true is of more value than the most stimulating of falsehoods  (Falsehoods Quotes) The truth, of course, is that a billion falsehoods told a billion times by a billion people are still false  (Falsehoods Quotes) Falsehoods of convenience or vanity, falsehoods from which no evil immediately visible ensues, except the general degradation of human testimony, are very lightly uttered, and once uttered are sullenly supported  (Falsehoods Quotes) Obviously, a man’s judgement cannot be better than the information on which he has based it. Give him the truth and he may still go wrong when he has the chance to be right, but give him no news or present him only with distorted and incomplete data, with ignorant, sloppy or biased reporting, with propaganda and deliberate falsehoods, and you destroy his whole reasoning processes, and make him something less than a man  (Falsehoods Quotes) If the soul is impartial in receiving information, it devotes to that information the share of critical investigation the information deserves, and its truth or untruth thus becomes clear. However, if the soul is infected with partisanship for a particular opinion or sect, it accepts without a moment’s hesitation the information that is agreeable to it. Prejudice and partisanship obscure the critical faculty and preclude critical investigation. The results is that falsehoods are accepted and transmitted  (Falsehoods Quotes) Human beings fear light and knowledge and power. There is a weird quirky sort of thing that happens with people.

The truth has been kept from the depth of their minds by masters who rule them with lies. They feed them on falsehoods till wrong looks like right in their eyes  (Falsehoods Quotes) He who knows nothing is closer to the truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors  (Falsehoods Quotes) Habitual liars invent falsehoods not to gain any end or even to deceive their hearers, but to amuse themselves. It is partly practice and partly habit. It requires an effort in them to speak truth  (Falsehoods Quotes) We know how to speak many falsehoods that resemble real things, but we know, when we will, how to speak true things  (Falsehoods Quotes) And the light by which she had read the book filled with troubles, falsehoods, sorrow, and evil, flared up more brightly than ever before, lighted up for her all that had been in darkness, flickered, began to grow dim, and was quenched forever  (Falsehoods Quotes) A reliable way to make people believe in falsehoods is frequent repetition, because familiarity is not easily distinguished from truth. Authoritarian institutions and marketers have always known this fact  (Falsehoods Quotes)
