Truth Quotes
-

And that's really what's going on with 'Chronicle 2.'

When thus convinced, and not before, he seeks help from the only source whence it can be obtained.

I never listen to debates. They are dreadful things indeed. The plain truth is that I am not a fair man, and don't want to hear both sides. On all known subjects, ranging from aviation to xylophone-playing, I have fixed and invariable ideas. They have not changed since I was four or five.
