Paul Valery

“Better an honest enemy than a false friend”
German Proverb
“There are two freedoms; The false, where man is free to do what he likes; The true, where man is free to do what he ought.”
Charles Kingsley
“And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus: / Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.”
Bible
“Bearing false witness is not just one of the Ten Commandments. The Bible has numerously repeated warnings against slander, false testimony and just plain old lying. Interestingly, it has been a socially acceptable form of oppressing minorities and the poor for centuries: slander, sensationalism, hearsay, innuendo, half-truths, insinuations, rumors, myth, and outright lies. We should learn these words, and call it what it really is . . .”
Mike E. Knezevich, Jr.
“All generalizations are false, including this one.”
Mark Twain
