THE USE OF KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

In A Time Of Universal Deceit, Telling The Truth Becomes A Revolutionary Act. (Orwell)

ALL TRUTH PASSES THROUGH THREE STAGES; FIRST, IT IS RIDICULED, SECOND, IT IS VIOLENTLY OPPOSED, THIRD, IT IS ACCEPTED AS BEING SELF-EVIDENT. (Arthur Schopenhauer)

I WILL TELL YOU ONE THING FOR SURE. ONCE YOU GET TO THE POINT WHERE YOU ARE ACTUALLY DOING THINGS FOR TRUTH'S SAKE, THEN NOBODY CAN EVER TOUCH YOU AGAIN BECAUSE YOU ARE HARMONIZING WITH A GREATER POWER. (George Harrison)

THE WORLD ALWAYS INVISIBLY AND DANGEROUSLY REVOLVES AROUND PHILOSOPHERS. (Nietzsche)

The Real Question


There is nothing more necessary than truth, and in comparison with it everything else has only secondary value.

This absolute will to truth: what is it? 

Is it the will to not allow ourselves to be deceived? Is it the will not to deceive?
 
One does not want to be deceived, under the supposition that it is injurious, dangerous, or fatal to be deceived. 
 
(NIETZSCHE) 
 

None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free. (Goethe) 

In a negative world, it is easier to deceive people than to convince them that they have been deceived. (Mark Twain)
