But the thought leaders on talk radio and Fox do more than shape opinion. Backed by their own wing of the book-publishing industry and supported by think tanks that increasingly function as public-relations agencies, conservatives have built a whole alternative knowledge system, with its own facts, its own history, its own laws of economics. ~ David Frum
Post Truth quotes by David Frum
Post-truth is pre-fascism. ~ Timothy Snyder
Post Truth quotes by Timothy Snyder
Our inherent cognitive biases make us ripe for manipulation and exploitation by those who have an agenda to push, especially if they can discredit all other sources of information. ~ Lee McIntyre
Post Truth quotes by Lee McIntyre
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
Post Truth quotes by Alexandre Koyré
All history is one continuous pestilence. There is no truth and there is no illusion. There is nowhere to appeal and nowhere to go. ~ Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Post Truth quotes by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
It is true that those of us who have political experience could wrestle for power just as any other politician. But we have no time; we have more important things to do. And there is no doubt that the knowledge we hold to be sacred would be lost in the process. To acquire power, millions of people have to be fed illusions. This too is true: Lenin won over millions of Russian peasants, without whom the Russian Revolution would have been impossible, with a slogan which was at variance with the basic collective tendencies of the Russian party. The slogan was: "Take the land of the large land-owners. It is to be your individual property." And the peasants followed. They would not have offered their allegiance if they had been told in 1917 that this land would one day be collectivized. The truth of this is attested to by the bitter fight for the collectivization of Russian agriculture around 1930. In social life there are degrees of power and degrees of falsity. The more the masses of people adhere to truth, the less power-mongering there will be; the more imbued with irrational illusions the masses of people are, the more widespread and brutal individual power-mongering will be. ~ Wilhelm Reich
Post Truth quotes by Wilhelm Reich
Pretty soon, I'll be decomposing into phosphorous, calcium, and so on. Who else will you find to tell you the truth? All that's left are the archives. Pieces of paper. And the truth is... I worked at an archive myself, I can tell you first hand: paper lies even more than people do. ~ Svetlana Alexievich
Post Truth quotes by Svetlana Alexievich
When the mistakes fall disproportionately on one side, it is no respect for the notion of truth to pretend that everything is even. ~ Lee McIntyre
Post Truth quotes by Lee McIntyre
Totalitarian politics - far from being simply antisemitic or racist or imperialist or communist - use and abuse their own ideological and political elements until the basis of factual reality, from which the ideologies originally derived their strength and their propaganda value - the reality of class struggle, for instance, or the interest conflicts between Jews and their neighbors - have all but disappeared. ~ Hannah Arendt
Post Truth quotes by Hannah Arendt
I'm a truth seeker. That's what I do every day on the show - put out the truth. Some people don't like it, they call it sensational, but I say life is sensational. ~ Oprah Winfrey
Post Truth quotes by Oprah Winfrey
[On Napoleon:] The Emperor is too grand for anybody to tell him the truth, everybody who surrounds him flatters him all day long. ~ Josephine De Beauharnais
Post Truth quotes by Josephine De Beauharnais
Once you start pushing your standards up, demons come out and show themselves behind the mask. I don't oppose anyone by nature but if someone opposes me, they reveal themselves as my enemy and enemies of anyone that wishes to be by my side. Besides, as you improve your life and move forward, the ones that weren't honest with you will certainly disappear. The opposite of this truth has consequences and they commonly come in the form of betrayal, deception, shock, abandonment and trauma. Life does not forgive or sympathizes with the ignorant. It never did. Such fact comes in the form of what many see as bad luck. ~ Robin Sacredfire
Post Truth quotes by Robin Sacredfire
When no one you know tells the truth, you learn to see under the surface. ~ Cassandra Clare
Post Truth quotes by Cassandra Clare
Losing the Internet has forced them to interact verbally instead of microblogging their lives, but a lot of them still talk in Tweets:
"Ugh! I'm standing in line at the post office."
"I'm not eating the crusts on my sandwich because apparently I'm five. ~ Wayne Gladstone
Post Truth quotes by Wayne Gladstone
The truth is I've always been a Christian. What's amazing, is that the flaws that come with Christianity are really weird, because mine have a microphone and a camera attached to them. Most people don't have to live under that microscope. ~ Steve Harvey
Post Truth quotes by Steve Harvey
I have an enemy and that is me. ~ Debasish Mridha
Post Truth quotes by Debasish Mridha
Remain at your post and do your duty - for the glory of God and His kingdom. ~ Charles Colson
Post Truth quotes by Charles Colson
Liars...are people who seek popularity and recognition. Even when faced with truth, they always find a way to escape, coldly repeating what had just been said or blaming the accuser of speaking untruths. ~ Paulo Coelho
Post Truth quotes by Paulo Coelho
To turn away from the great questions and dilemmas of life is a tragedy, for the quest for meaning and truth makes life worth living. ~ Charles Colson
Post Truth quotes by Charles Colson
Truth is that concordance of an abstract statement with the ideal limit towards which endless investigation would tend to bring scientific belief, which concordance the abstract statement may possess by virtue of the confession of its inaccuracy and one-sidedness, and this confession is an essential ingredient of truth. ~ Charles Sanders Peirce
Post Truth quotes by Charles Sanders Peirce
If the end is near; truth will survive. ~ Kristian Goldmund Aumann
Post Truth quotes by Kristian Goldmund Aumann
You spoke the truth, Percy Jackson. You are nothing like ... like Hercules. I am honored that you carry this sword. ~ Rick Riordan
Post Truth quotes by Rick Riordan
He left to take up his post, and as he went
he said 'Sleep, Lily. I'§ watch the doors.' I never slept peacefully before
that night. I didn't know how to rest, and trust I was safe. I slept that day
as I'd never slept before. ~ Cassandra Clare
Post Truth quotes by Cassandra Clare
Neither objectivity nor subjectivity seem to make much sense. ~ Marty Rubin
Post Truth quotes by Marty Rubin
How Robin would have loved this!' the aunts used to say fondly. 'How Robin would have laughed!' In truth, Robin had been a giddy, fickle child - somber at odd moments, practically hysterical at others - and in life, this unpredictability had been a great part of his charm. But his younger sisters, who had never in any proper sense known him at all, nonetheless grew up certain of their dead brother's favorite color (red); his favorite book (The Wind in the Willows) and his favorite character in it (Mr. Today); his favorite flavor of ice cream (chocolate) and his favorite baseball team (the Cardinals) and a thousand other things which they - being living children, and preferring chocolate ice cream one week and peach the next - were not even sure they knew about themselves. Consequently their relationship with their dead brother was of the most intimate sort, his strong, bright, immutable character shining changelessly against the vagueness and vacillation of their own characters, and the characters of people that they knew; and they grew up believing that this was due to some rare, angelic incandescence of nature on Robin's part, and not at all to the fact that he was dead. ~ Donna Tartt
Post Truth quotes by Donna Tartt
There haven't been fundamental structural changes in America. There's been a very important symbolic change and that is the election of Barack Obama. But the only black people who truly live in a post-racial world in America all live in a very nice house on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. ~ Henry Louis Gates
Post Truth quotes by Henry Louis Gates
The chief ingredients in the composition of those qualities that gain esteem and praise, are good nature, truth, good sense, and good breeding. ~ Joseph Addison
Post Truth quotes by Joseph Addison
Times are you say a person's b'liefs ain't true, they think you're sayin' their lifes ain't true an' their truth ain't true. ~ David Mitchell
Post Truth quotes by David Mitchell
I was joking earlier when I said that all writers are manic depressives, but it's a joke with a lot of truth behind it. For fiction writers and poets, too, there's something wrong with you and you do this art as a way of correcting it or addressing it in some way. ~ T.C. Boyle
Post Truth quotes by T.C. Boyle
Your words may be heard but your attitude will be felt. Your attitude reveals your character so never try to deceive anyone with mere words. Word/Talk is cheap but character is key. It costs nothing to be authentic. Learn to be a man or woman of substance! ~ Kemi Sogunle
Post Truth quotes by Kemi Sogunle
There are little beauties everywhere. We just have to look for them. And then when we find them, we have to keep them close, even when they or drift off to sea, and that isn't hard, really, when you think about it, because everything always leads to something else and when you feel sad and empty and like it all means nothing, you might look out and see two shopping carts and you might remember: I just have to look, listen, and tell the truth and the beauty will be there. That's what beauty hunting is. ~ Jennifer Pastiloff
Post Truth quotes by Jennifer Pastiloff
He loved her beyond earth, heaven, or hell. Every moment out of her company was agony; every moment with her was the only peace he had ever known. Every touch of her hands left an imprint that ate down to his soul. He would have killed himself before admitting it to anyone. The truth was buried deep in his heart. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Post Truth quotes by Lisa Kleypas
If a contract, either civil or natural, could still bind the
king and his people, there would be a mutual obligation; the will of the people could not set itself up as
absolute judge to pronounce absolute judgment. Therefore it is necessary to prove that no agreement
binds the people and the king. In order to prove that the people are themselves the embodiment of eternal
truth it is necessary to demonstrate that royalty is the embodiment of eternal crime. Saint-Just, therefore,
postulates that every king is a rebel or a usurper. He is a rebel against the people whose absolute
sovereignty he usurps. Monarchy is not a king, "it is crime." Not a crime, but crime itself, says Saint-Just;
in other words, absolute profanation. ~ Albert Camus
Post Truth quotes by Albert Camus
There is hardly any man so strict as not to vary a little from truth when he is to make an excuse. ~ Sir George Savile, 8th Baronet
Post Truth quotes by Sir George Savile, 8th Baronet
Everyone has his own truths and every such truth corresponds to a particular intelligence or consciousness level. If some religious absurdities are your truths, then you must increase your level to approach to the real truth! At the position of low level intelligence and consciousness, it is impossible to see the real truth! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Post Truth quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
Bizarre and engrossingly disturbing, Naked Lunch, finds truth in madness. ~ William S. Burroughs
Post Truth quotes by William S. Burroughs
It's because the truth is important. Never let anyone tell you differently, Boyd. Even if it hurts to say, even if it's painful to hear, even if you wish you could run the other way - it's important. It separates the people with integrity from the deceivers. It's what makes a person trustworthy. Somebody to believe in ~ Santino Hassell
Post Truth quotes by Santino Hassell
Love yourself because, when you love yourself, you're loving the source of being. ~ Debasish Mridha
Post Truth quotes by Debasish Mridha
I can't control my feelings, but I'm learning to have a say in how much my feelings control me. ~ Scott Stabile
Post Truth quotes by Scott Stabile
Endurance is more important than truth. ~ Charles Bukowski
Post Truth quotes by Charles Bukowski
The Quakers have a saying: "An enemy is one whose story we have not heard." To communicate to post-Christians, I must first listen to their stories for clues to how they view the world and how they view people like me. Those conversations are what led to the title of this book. Although God's grace is as amazing as ever, in my divided country it seems in vanishing supply. ~ Philip Yancey
Post Truth quotes by Philip Yancey
The intuition of a deafened and isolated soldier often turns out to be nearer the truth than judgements delivered by staff officers as they study the map. ~ Vasily Grossman
Post Truth quotes by Vasily Grossman
A Tornado knocks a house down, killing the owner, and it's a tragedy. Then you learn a serial killer lived there and the same act becomes a miracle. The truth about what happens to us in this world keeps changing. Always. It never stops. Sometimes not even after death. ~ Marisha Pessl
Post Truth quotes by Marisha Pessl
This post-college world felt different from everything that had come before it ... ~ Meg Wolitzer
Post Truth quotes by Meg Wolitzer
Longevity is something I never gave a second thought to. I guess it's the shadow of growing up in post WWII, but I never believed I would live past 20. Here I am though ... a senior citizen ... my voice and heart are stronger than ever, but boredom is the greatest enemy so I have to be careful not to slip over the edge. ~ Eric Burdon
Post Truth quotes by Eric Burdon
To become properly acquainted with a truth, we must first have disbelieved it, and disputed against it. ~ Novalis
Post Truth quotes by Novalis
Whatever truth you have chosen, read only a small portion of it, endeavouring to taste and digest it, to extract the essence and substance thereof, and proceed no farther while any savour or relish remains in the passage: when this subsides, pick up your book again and proceed as before, seldom reading more than half a page at a time, for it is not the quantity that is read, but the manner of reading, that yields us profit. ~ Jeanne Marie Bouvier De La Motte Guyon
