Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.

You can call me a fat, balding, talentless old queen who can't sing, but you can't tell lies about me.

Freedom of the press is essential to the preservation of a democracy; but there is a difference between freedom and license. Editorialists who tell downright lies in order to advance their own agendas do more to discredit the press than all the censors in the world.

The machinery of propaganda may pack their minds with falsehood and deny them truth for many generations of time. But the soul of man thus held in trance, or frozen in a long night, can be awakened by a spark coming from God knows where, and in a moment the whole structure of lies and oppression is on trial for its life.

In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.

Of all the animals, man is the only one that lies.
