"The size of the lie is a definite factor in causing it to be believed,
for the vast masses of the nation are in the depths of their hearts
more easily deceived than they are consciously and intentionally bad.
The primitive simplicity of their minds
renders them a more easy prey to a big lie than a small one,
for they themselves often tell little lies
but would be ashamed to tell a big one."
~ Benito Mussolini,
London Sunday Express, December 8, 1935
"How many murders, suicides, robberies, criminal assaults, holdups,
burglaries and deeds of maniacal insanity it causes each year,
especially among the young, can only be conjectured...
No one knows, when he places a marijuana cigarette to his lips,
whether he will become a joyous reveller in a musical heaven,
a mad insensate, a calm philosopher, or a murderer..."
~ HARRY J ANSLINGER,
Commissioner of the US Bureau of Narcotics 1930-1962
"All propaganda must be so popular
and on such an intellectual level,
that even the most stupid of those
towards whom it is directed will understand it.
Therefore, the intellectual level
of the propaganda must be lower
the larger the number of people who are to be influenced by it."
Just say NO
Through clever and constant application of propaganda,
people can be made to see paradise as hell,
and also the other way around,
to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise."
~ Benito Mussolini,
London Sunday Express, December 8, 1935
"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US,

~ Daryl DARE Gates - Former LAPD Chief

it is condemned to literary sterility.
And when it is past,
it will have no history, except the bloody history of murder."
