"We are all capable of believing things which we know to be
untrue, and then, when we are finally proved wrong, impudently
twisting the facts so as to show that we were right.
Intellectually, it is possible to carry on this process for an
indefinite time: the only check on it is that sooner or later
a false belief bumps up against solid reality, usually on a
battlefield."

"America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter
and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
-- Abraham Lincoln
