Whoever holds the purse strings, is the boss -- always was, always will be.

The problem is that we have become so hypocritical that we punish those who tell us unpleasant truths and promote those who tell us the lies we want to hear.

Seeking the Truth starts with telling the truth -- that is the hard part. Sometimes the most honest thing one can say is "I don't know."

Those that know that they do not know (and cannot possibly know everything) are indeed humbled by that fact. It is those that are SURE that they know that will surely deceive themselves.
