“The repeated lies become history, but they don't necessarily become the truth.”
“when a lie is repeated enough it becomes the truth!”
“I've always preferred mythology to history. History is truth that becomes an illusion. Mythology is an illusion that becomes reality.”
“Those who don't know their history are doomed to repeat it. You have to expose who you are so that you can determine what you need to become.”
“History buried becomes history repeated. A whole generation of Africans have been denied the truth of their own history, and so we do not really know ourselves, or our countries. Reclaiming those erased or hidden histories is vital political and creative work, and is central to my purpose as a writer.”
“A lie told often enough becomes the truth.”
