A big lie is more plausible than truth. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Big Lie quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
It's not easy to pull off the Big Lie
and George Bush has failed. ~ Robert Scheer
Big Lie quotes by Robert Scheer
The big lie and monotonously repeated nonsense have more emotional appeal in a cold war than logic and reason. ~ Joost Meerloo
Big Lie quotes by Joost Meerloo
that's a pretty big lie by omission ~ Carrie Jones
Big Lie quotes by Carrie Jones
I'm actually not a tactile person," Fiona said.
That was such a big lie she couldn't look him in the eye. Not a tactile person. All her powers were concentrated in the most intimate tactile experience possible.
Armando's grin split even wider. "I'd love the chance to prove you wrong. ~ Sara Daniel
Big Lie quotes by Sara  Daniel
Patrick Henry said 'give me liberty or give me death.' I think his famous quote makes it crystal clear that the Constitutional framework of this country values liberty as an essential element of life, worth dying for. If something is worth such a sacrifice, how can the loss of it be justified for the argument that it will make us safer to give up our liberty and our civil rights? Are we to tell the mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers of all the soldiers lost in foreign wars that it was all a big lie? That they died for nothing? ~ Kenneth Eade
Big Lie quotes by Kenneth Eade
The big lie of American capitalism is that corporations work in their own best interests. In fact they're constantly doing things that will eventually bring them to their knees. Most of these blunders involve toxic chemicals that any competent chemist should know to be dangerous. They pump these things into the environment and don't even try to protect themselves. The evidence is right there in public, almost as if they'd printed up signed confessions and sprinkled them out of aeroplanes. Sooner or later, someone shows up in a Zodiac and points to that evidence, and the result is devastation far worse than what a terrorist, a Boone, could manage with bombs and guns. All the old men within twenty miles who have come down with tumors become implacable enemies. All the women married to them, all the mothers of damaged children, and even those of undamaged ones. The politicians and the news media trample each other in their haste to pour hellfire down on that corporation. The transformation can happen overnight and it's easy to bring about. You just have to show up and point your finger. ~ Neal Stephenson
Big Lie quotes by Neal Stephenson
The big lie out there, the big lie that the Republicans propagate day after day, is that cutting marginal rates for those at the top is going to create jobs. It's simply not true. ~ Eliot Spitzer
Big Lie quotes by Eliot Spitzer
People are more likely to believe a big lie than a small one. ~ Adolf Hitler
Big Lie quotes by Adolf Hitler
Reproductive freedom is not just the ability not to have a child through birth control. It's the ability to have one if and when you want. ~ Pamela Madsen
Big Lie quotes by Pamela Madsen
That's the oldest sin of all. Pride. Spiritual pride. Believing that you're better than others. Believing that you're enlightened, you're smart, you're in the know, and everyone else is stumbling about blindly in the darkness. The old us-versus-them. My group is better than your group. My people, my nation, my country, my religion, my gender, my sexual orientation. Old as sin. And it's a Big Lie. ~ Jerome Wilde
Big Lie quotes by Jerome Wilde
What would it matter if, for the sake of the Christian Church, one were to tell a big lie? ~ Martin Luther
Big Lie quotes by Martin Luther
Society has always said: Make money. Artists have said: But there's something else. Cliché City. But in Hollwood there's the Big Lie that you can have both. A lie you want to believe. ~ Jerry Stahl
Big Lie quotes by Jerry Stahl
The last decade has seen a powerful counterassault on women's rights, a backlash, an attempt to retract the handful of small and hard-won victories that the feminist movement did manage to win for women. This counterassault is largely insidious: in a kind of pop-culture version of the Big Lie, it stands the truth boldly on its head and proclaims that the very steps that have elevated women's position have actually led to their downfall. ~ Susan Faludi
Big Lie quotes by Susan Faludi
The great masses of the people will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one. ~ Adolf Hitler
Big Lie quotes by Adolf Hitler
I don't believe that murders can be "solved." I think that this is the big lie of the mystery novel, that you should close the book and feel that the world is back in order and everything's all right. I want the reader to know that the world is not all right, and maybe we ought to do something about it. ~ George Pelecanos
Big Lie quotes by George Pelecanos
His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it. ~ Adolf Hitler
Big Lie quotes by Adolf Hitler
Original sin - the big lie. ~ Art Hochberg
Big Lie quotes by Art Hochberg
If you think somebody is telling a big lie about you, the only way to answer is with the whole truth. ~ Harry S. Truman
Big Lie quotes by Harry S. Truman
You know, there's a big lie in this business. The lie is that it's okay to go out in flames. But that doesn't do anybody much good. I may be wrong, but I think Hendrix was trying to come around. ~ Stevie Ray Vaughan
Big Lie quotes by Stevie Ray Vaughan
So let's just forget about the whole thing and agree never to speak of it again. And I promise I'll never lie to you again.
Ah, but surely you must be saying, "Hey! Isn't this entire story a work of fiction and therefore one big lie?"
Perhaps. But we already agreed never to speak of it again. ~ Jason Carter Eaton
Big Lie quotes by Jason Carter Eaton
She rounded on him. "You wouldn't, you giant ass." To be honest, she didn't understand, either. But that didn't stop her from putting several days' worth of fear and stress on the table. "I'm scared, okay? I'm lost. I don't know where I am, and everyone here looks at me like they want to eat me or torture me. Maybe both. I want to go home, but then I don't want to go home because everything I thought I knew is one big lie. The people I trusted have turned against me, and even my own brother is afraid to help me." She paused to take a breath, fresh fuel for her tirade. "I should hate you, but instead, I'm attracted to you, which is beyond twisted, especially since I know that after I get Neriya back, I'm probably going to die." She dashed away tears with the back of her hand. "So forgive me if I'm a little emotionally unstable right now." She sniffed. "Ass. ~ Larissa Ione
Big Lie quotes by Larissa Ione
The mob believes everything it is told, provided only that it be repeated over and over. Provided too that its passions, hatreds, fears are catered to. Nor need one try to stay within the limits of plausibility: on the contrary, the grosser, the bigger, the cruder the lie, the more readily is it believed and followed. Nor is there any need to avoid contradictions: the mob never notices; needless to pretend to correlate what is said to some with what is said to others: each person or group believes only what he is told, not what anyone else is told; needless to strive for coherence: the mob has no memory; needless to pretend to any truth: the mob is radically incapable of perceiving it: the mob can never comprehend that its own interests are what is at stake. ~ Alexandre Koyré
Big Lie quotes by Alexandre Koyré
Perhaps death is just a big lie. ~ Bella James
Big Lie quotes by Bella James
The official philosophies of the totalitarian regimes unanimously brand as nonsensical the idea that there exists a single objective truth valid for everybody. The criterion of "truth," they say, is not agreement with reality, but agreement with the spirit of a race or nation or class - that is, racial, national or utilitarian. Pushing to their limits the biological, pragmatist, activist theories of truth, the official philosophies of the totalitarian regimes deny the inherent value of thought. For them thought is not a light but a weapon: its function, they say, is not to discover reality as it is, but to change and transform it with the purpose of leading us towards what is not. Such being the case, myth is better than science and rhetoric that works on the passions preferable to proof that appeals to the intellect. ~ Alexandre Koyré
Big Lie quotes by Alexandre Koyré
That's why people get into fandom and bands and stuff. They just want something to hold on to something that makes them feel good. Even if it's all a big lie. ~ Alice Oseman
Big Lie quotes by Alice Oseman
I've been working on my honesty this summer. I've told such a big lie, such a massively irreversible one, that I figure I need to somehow even the score. But the thing about lying is that it's not so easy to stop. Lies need one another, like a school of fish. If you start to separate them, they'll be killed off one by one. Sometimes the only way to keep lies alive is to tell more of them. ~ Rebecca Serle
Big Lie quotes by Rebecca Serle
It's genius, really: saturate the media with ideal bodies, convince women that they can only be happy if they look like those bodies, sell women products promising to give them those bodies, and when those products don't work, tell the women that it's their fault for not having enough willpower, and sell them more.
If women begin to achieve the current ideal body, change the ideal so that they'll need to keep buying products (that don't work) to attain the impossible. Rinse and repeat. They go home rolling in their billions and we're left with shattered self-esteem, empty bank accounts, wasted years, and useless products, and we still blame ourselves instead of seeing it for the manipulation that it is. And all along the whole thing rests on that one big lie, that your body needs to look a certain way in order for you to be happy. We bought it. We still buy it. ~ Megan Jayne Crabbe
Big Lie quotes by Megan Jayne Crabbe
The big lie is that the people who make a lot of money were the only ones that worked hard. ~ Chris Matthews
Big Lie quotes by Chris Matthews
The primitive simplicity of their minds renders them a more easy prey to a big lie than a small one. ~ Adolf Hitler
Big Lie quotes by Adolf Hitler
Truth is dissent, where all power resides in the Big Lie. ~ Allen Ginsberg
Big Lie quotes by Allen Ginsberg
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie. ~ Bob Dylan
Big Lie quotes by Bob Dylan
With faith, you may get stuck in a very big lie and may lose the truth forever; but with doubt, you can always reach the truth! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Big Lie quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
Today the big lie of the Koch-sponsored radical right is that society can be split between makers and takers, justifying on the part of the makers a Manichaean struggle to disarm and defeat those who would take from them. ~ Nancy MacLean
Big Lie quotes by Nancy MacLean
You tell the big lie by carefully selecting only the small, isolated truths, linking them in such a way that that advance the bigger lie by painting a picture inside the viewer's head. The Ascended High Master of this Dark Art is Noam Chomsky. ~ Bill Whittle
Big Lie quotes by Bill Whittle
When you reject the genuine, you are wide open for the spurious. Paul wrote to the Thessalonians that when someone rejects the love of the truth that they might be saved, they will believe the big lie. ~ J. Vernon McGee
Big Lie quotes by J. Vernon McGee
I got a feeling your statements are true but all they add up to is one big lie. ~ Vincent Gardenia
Big Lie quotes by Vincent Gardenia
Once a Big Lie was let out in the world, it seemed to grow on its own and needed little tending or worry to bend to the situation. ~ Scott Lynch
Big Lie quotes by Scott Lynch
The broad mass of a nation will more easily fall victim to a big lie than a small one. The greater the lie, the greater chance that it will be believed. All epoch-making events have been produced not by the written, but the spoken word. ~ Adolf Hitler
Big Lie quotes by Adolf Hitler
We are in a degenerate state of self-government. In fact, even to use the words self-government, is not only an exaggeration, it's a lie. It's a big lie! ~ Jerry Brown
Big Lie quotes by Jerry Brown
Do you ever get the feeling that when you show someone your affection for them, you are assaulting them? Like you should probably leave them alone? Your affection, no matter how sincere, does not necessarily mean a damn thing to the person you are giving it to. Love can corner you. When you intrude on someone with your affection, you might find yourself trying to knock a strong door down with your shoulder. Either you break the door or you break yourself. Something almost always gets broken. In my mind it runs like this:
I'm going to like you, whether you like it or not. I'll wear you down until you relent and swallow this big lie I have for you. Don't move. Don't live. I love you. ~ Henry Rollins
Big Lie quotes by Henry Rollins
Our Narcissistic Mother told us a Big Lie. She told it subliminally if not in actual words. And The Big Lie was this: If we tried hard enough we could win her approval and her love. If we were good enough, or wise enough, or beautiful enough, or that-magical-unspecified-ingredient enough. In other words, if we achieved perfection, she would love us. ~ Danu Morrigan
Big Lie quotes by Danu Morrigan
Which he said was the big lie they all bought that made doctors and standard therapy such a waste of time for people like us
they thought that diagnosis was the same as cure. That if you knew why, it would stop. Which is bullshit. You only stop if you stop. ~ David Foster Wallace
Big Lie quotes by David Foster Wallace
The American People will take Socialism, but they won't take the label. I certainly proved it in the case of EPIC [End Poverty in California]. Running on the Socialist ticket I got 60,000 votes, and running on the slogan to 'End Poverty in California' I got 879,000. I think we simply have to recognize the fact that our enemies have succeeded in spreading the Big Lie. There is no use attacking it by a front attack, it is much better to out-flank them. ~ Upton Sinclair
Big Lie quotes by Upton Sinclair
With Katrina, it's almost like the sequel that doesn't live up to the original. It's certainly a shocking event and a tragedy, but somehow as a big event it doesn't seem to carry as much weight with the public as 9/11 did. ~ Gilbert Gottfried
Big Lie quotes by Gilbert Gottfried
You think I don't know how to date? You think the kind of sex I like is like some condition? Like a fucking dialysis machine I have to drag around behind me, making everything into a big fucking hassle? ~ Cara McKenna
Big Lie quotes by Cara McKenna
So I think in those circumstances, there's some potential that you could see a big pendulum swing like 1994, which people you thought weren't vulnerable all of the sudden get in trouble. ~ John Podesta
Big Lie quotes by John Podesta
A person can be big, because of spirit. A person can be big because of their position in the family, the hierarchy in the family. That role has been played by women who are quite thin. ~ Phylicia Rashad
Big Lie quotes by Phylicia Rashad
Capping the size of American banks won't eliminate the needs of big businesses; it will force them to turn to foreign banks that won't face the same restrictions. ~ Jamie Dimon
Big Lie quotes by Jamie Dimon
For a song I was bought Now I lie when I talk With a careful eye on the cue card. Onto a stage I was pushed, With my sorrow well rehearsed. So give me all your pity and your money, now (all of it). ~ Conor Oberst
Big Lie quotes by Conor Oberst
As Nobel laureate physicist Frank Wilczek has put it, "The answer to the ancient question, 'Why is there something rather than nothing?' would then be that 'nothing' is unstable." ... In short, the natural state of affairs is something rather than nothing. An empty universe requires supernatural intervention
not a full one. Only by the constant action of an agent outside the universe, such as God, could a state of nothingness be maintained. The fact that we have something is just what we would expect if there is no God. ~ Victor J. Stenger
Big Lie quotes by Victor J. Stenger
In Massachusetts they [Democratic politicians] steal, in California they feud, and in New York they lie. ~ Robert Kennedy
Big Lie quotes by Robert Kennedy
Myself, I'm just a simple country boy who spent time on the streets and developed a style of writing and rapping and a cool sound that people seem to enjoy. ~ Big Smo
Big Lie quotes by Big Smo
If you're born rich, congrats! If not, take heart!
Options so abounding, the world so vast!
Nowadays there are no more alibis,
why we ought to remain poor all our lives.

We have this dictum where you I will tour:
"It is not your fault that you were born poor,
but it's already your fault, you died poor!"
What a great saying, big truth it conjures! ~ Rodolfo Martin Vitangcol
Big Lie quotes by Rodolfo Martin Vitangcol
What mysteries remain to be revealed in the nervous system, that web of structures both material and ethereal, that network of threads that runs throughout the body, composed of a thousand Ariadne's clues, all leading to the brain, that shadowy central den where the human bones lie scattered and the monsters lurk ~ Margaret Atwood
Big Lie quotes by Margaret Atwood
Big Daddy: Ignorance - of morality - is a comfort. ~ Tennessee Williams
Big Lie quotes by Tennessee Williams
Strangely, when I was a kid, my first acting job, at 5 years old, was a performance of 'The Three Little Pigs.' They cast me as the Big Bad Wolf. ~ William Zabka
Big Lie quotes by William Zabka
I know you told me you'd wait for me, but I don't want either of us to wait anymore. Especially when I knew from the first moment I saw you that you were special. I feel like I've been running my whole life, speeding from small town into a big city, jumping from one place to the next for years until they all blurred together. And right when I decided it was time to finally stop running and set down some roots, there you were. My new beginning." Her eyes filled with tears as she smiled up at him and slid her arms around his neck to pull him closer. "My love."
Jack sank down onto the couch with Mary, her curves soft beneath his muscles. "I'll always be yours, Angel. Forever. ~ Bella Andre
Big Lie quotes by Bella Andre
I first started asking big questions when I was 12, and by big questions, I mean, 'Why are we here? What is this business? We're alive for a few short decades and then poof, we're out of here.' ~ Barbara Ehrenreich
Big Lie quotes by Barbara Ehrenreich
The other day, one of the big shots was trying to say 'Nice shoes!' and he accidentally told a government minister that his face looked like a butt wart. Not good. ~ Carl Hiaasen
Big Lie quotes by Carl Hiaasen
It's kind of a funny world we live in today with tabloids and all. I feel there's so much negativity out there and people sense that people only want to read things that either are controversial or negative, therefore you end up dealing with people lying about your life and having to answer to things that become ridiculous with an onslaught of lies and you have to answer to them. ~ Kate Hudson
Big Lie quotes by Kate Hudson
A little spoon for a cup of soup teaches to be patient; and the big one, to be greedy! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Big Lie quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
With the girls, on the other hand, if the pleasure which I enjoyed was selfish, at least it was not based on the lie which seeks to make us believe that we are not irremediably alone and prevents us from admitting that, when we chat, it is no longer we who speak, that we are fashioning ourselves then in the likeness of other people and not of a self that differs from them. ~ Marcel Proust
Big Lie quotes by Marcel Proust
Annabel was, like the writer, of mixed parentage: half-English, half-Dutch, in her case. I remember her features far less distinctly today than I did a few years ago, before I knew Lolita. There are two kinds of visual memory: one when you skillfully recreate an image in the laboratory of your mind, with your eyes open (and then I see Annabel in such general terms as: "honey-colored skin," "thin arms," "brown bobbed hair," "long lashes," "big bright mouth"); and the other when you instantly evoke, with shut eyes, on the dark innerside of your eyelids, the objective, absolutely optical replica of a beloved face, a little ghost in natural colors (and this is how I see Lolita). ~ Vladimir Nabokov
Big Lie quotes by Vladimir Nabokov
I think there's an awful lot of me in Big Bird, but Oscar is pretty much - I think I know how he thinks because he thinks exactly the opposite of what I think is a good way to be. ~ Caroll Spinney
Big Lie quotes by Caroll Spinney
While the powers of the Primal Cause lie in causation, it shows itself in process through thoughts, perception and conception. It is the power of the Primal Cause to decipher what is perceived from the ordered plane and conceive judgments through thoughts from the unordered. ~ Dew Platt
Big Lie quotes by Dew Platt
I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me! ~ Dr. Seuss
Big Lie quotes by Dr. Seuss
The truth was more powerful than a lie could ever be (Eric) ~ Shannon A. Thompson
Big Lie quotes by Shannon A. Thompson
I like a lot of good European films, good - anything really. I'm a big fan of Netflix and I get films from them all the time. If I hear about something that I don't know, that I haven't seen, forgot about, I immediately jot it down and add it to my Netflix list or if there's a film that's available that I haven't seen for many years, I get that. ~ Robert Barry
Big Lie quotes by Robert Barry
The psychobabble spelled out in magazines, the imaginary divans we would never wish to lie on ourselves, all they do is hold up mirrors in which not a single truth is revealed, because the truth is always trounced by the lie. Was Heinz a liar by saying nothing? Did he drink because he never stopped telling lies? ~ Cees Nooteboom
Big Lie quotes by Cees Nooteboom
I lived in Dallas, and it's a big city, but you can jump on any freeway and drive in any direction for about 30 minutes and you are in the country - open space, wide open, very open, nothin' around. ~ Stark Sands
Big Lie quotes by Stark Sands
People are eager to walk in other people's pair of shoes that does not fit them. The result is that, their dreams begin to imitate a "tortoise" walk and that I guess is already uncomfortable! ~ Israelmore Ayivor
Big Lie quotes by Israelmore Ayivor
Next Action

When you're avoiding something, try identifying the next action you need to take to move forward. Do that action. For example, if you have a legal situation and you feel overwhelmed about it, the next action you need to take might be something like emailing a lawyer friend and asking for a referral. If your garden has become overgrown with weeds, the next action you need to take might be locating your gardening tools. If your smartphone is acting up, the next action you need to take might be to run a backup. If you need to buy a new laptop, your next action might be to decide on your budget. Keep in mind that the next action you pick shouldn't be too big. Generally, try to think of something you can do in 15 minutes or less. If you still feel overwhelmed, try picking an even smaller next action. To give credit where credit is due, the concept of defining your next action was first popularized in a productivity book called Getting Things Done. It's a concept many of my clients have found useful. ~ Alice Boyes
Big Lie quotes by Alice Boyes
Once you have the vision and the passion to make it happen, you will achieve your dreams. It is up to you to decide when to make it happen; attitudes guide you to answer that! ~ Israelmore Ayivor
Big Lie quotes by Israelmore Ayivor
Is it considered unadventurous if you really don't feel like doing it? Sometimes I lie awake parcelling out my adventurousness or lack thereof. Should I have done it anyway on the off-chance that something adventurous would happen, and damn the consequences of giving a faulty impression in the process? Can you choose your adventures or does that make them comprised? I think I only take chances when there is a good chance of reward. I may have it all wrong. ~ Michelle Orange
Big Lie quotes by Michelle Orange
I've been an itinerant singer, a circus-rider, when I used to vault like Leotard, and dance on a rope like Blondin. Then I got to be a professor of gymnastics, so as to make better use of my talents; and then I was a sergeant fireman at Paris, and assisted at many a big fire. But I quitted France five years ago, and, wishing to taste the sweets of domestic life, took service as a valet here in England. ~ Jules Verne
Big Lie quotes by Jules Verne
The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry is a breezy, big-hearted treat, especially if you've ever wondered about the inner workings of America's national treasures
neighborhood bookstores. ~ Jami Attenberg
Big Lie quotes by Jami Attenberg
The problem with falling in love is falling back out of it again, usually because you've fallen in love with a lie. That happens as often as not. ~ Ellen Hopkins
Big Lie quotes by Ellen Hopkins
Programming languages, like pizzas, come in only too sizes; too big and too small. ~ Richard E. Pattis
Big Lie quotes by Richard E. Pattis
Eric Buckner is the most athletic big man I've ever coached. ~ Ron Hunter
Big Lie quotes by Ron Hunter
Chapter One: The Dawn and the Dread

Heartbeat, heartbeat comes from Valhallan way,
To meet down in judgment, to ply its trade.
Two →swords← to join in worthy cross,
Actions to be rendered, one to be lost.

She did come now from 'yond northern slope,
A day of reckoning did she again once hope.
A devout meeting was her qwesterly bane,
To stay her hand was to go insane.

St. Kari of the Blade to meet her past,
A wicked enemy, peerless of match.
Rode Kari she her charger on down,
Past the Dead Land where Gaul sat crowned.

A killing job, yea, she desired to lastly kill,
To set things right so her heart might lie still.
Upon the mist and roaring plain,
She entered in, a soul uncontained.

A fierce wind in deed, and forever freed,
Enemies she annihilhates ('tis hur' creed).
Her own advanced guard of a sort,
Multitudes to follow in her report.

Know this Valkyrie from on cold,
An ancient maiden soft and bold.
A warrior spirit from Ages past,
A fragmented mind like broken glass.

Solid in stature this eternal framed being,
Yet crippled within from internaled bleedings.
A sword saint so refined in the poetic art,
A noble character yet with a banshee's heart.

Rhythmed horse now to the beats,
Kari emboldened amid the sleet.
Beyond the mountain she does come,
Unto southern fields wherein r ~ Douglas Laurent
