"Anyone who has proclaimed violence his method inexorably must choose lying as his principle."

– Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

"Power don't come from a badge or a gun. Power comes from lying. Lying big and getting the whole damn world to play along with you. Once you've got everybody agreeing with what they know in their hearts ain't true, you've got 'em by the balls."

– Senator Roark, Sin City
