Quote of the Week

Another set of paired quotes, since they say much the same thing. (And, if I was blogging ten years ago, I could have posted them then. Heck, or twenty years ago, for that matter. Probably not thirty years back, though, since I was only seven years old then and kinda liked Jerry Ford.)

"Every government is run by liars and nothing they say should be believed."
- I.F. Stone

"Every decent man is ashamed of the government he lives under."
- H.L. Mencken
