{{quote|The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look behind words that have changed their meaning.|[[Terry Pratchett]]|''[[Lords and Ladies]]''}}

{{quote|Not the [[Both Sides Have a Point|violent conflict between parts of the truth]], but the quiet suppression of half of it, is the formidable evil; there is always hope when people are forced to listen to both sides; it is when they attend to only one that errors harden into prejudices, and truth itself ceases to have the effect of truth, by being exaggerated into falsehood.
|'''John Stuart Mill'''|''On Liberty'' }}
