Real Network Quote
You rather despair, because he who tries to tell the truth is called the biggest liar of all. Machiavelli, that kindly old cynic, came up with some wonderful advice in The Prince, which has been taken seriously by—Karl Roverino, I believe, is probably his correct name. Mr. Rove and company have taken up the fact that the bigger the lie, the more apt it is to be believed. So they’re always stretching it, kind of: You don’t think that’ll work? My God, it did. Then they go out and take polls, and things are working. Machiavelli—I was reminded of it.
