Who said this ??

[copenhagen]

"The size of the lie is a definite factor in causing it to be believed, for the vast masses of the nation are in the depths of their hearts more easily deceived than they are consciously and intentionally bad. The primitive simplicity of their minds renders them a more easy prey to a big lie than a small one, for they themselves often tell little lies but would be ashamed to tell a big one."

This is a quote from a famous person.

It reminds me of The Way and its leaders. With some of the things they said and did.

I am thinking of V.P. to LCM and a few region or state leaders of the past and presant.

Anyone else look back now and say how did I believe that crap.

Took me a while to remember since it has been many years since I read the book. That was Adolf Hitler in Mein Kamf if I recall correctly.

[Bolshevik]

Now what does it mean?

It's all a conspiracy, trust nobody. . .

[copenhagen]

Ramrunner wins the prize it was Adolf Hitler.

He had the wool pulled over Germany's eyes as V.P. pulled it over ours.

Which lies was Hitler referring to if any I wonder? Maybe he didn't mean anything at all.
