“The truth, as much as people acted like they wanted to hear it, was sometimes too cruel and harsh.”

“Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.”

“Dont try to explain too much to the people... B'coz people listen want they want to hear”

“I'm sorry. Is that too harsh an observation for you? Does that sound too much like the Truth? Fuck you. If anyone in this shithole city gave two tugs of a dead dog's cock about Truth, this wouldn't be happening.”

“Sometimes a gentle lie was enough to remove the weight of a harsh truth”

“Plainly stated, these false teachers enjoy so much success because they tell people what they want to hear, whether it's the truth or not. People want their ears "tickled"---they want to hear things that make them feel good. They want everything they hear to be "self-affirming" and "non-threatening" to their self-esteem.”
