liars self order
Cheryl Strayed The narratives we create in order to justify our actions and choices become in so many ways who we are. They are the things we say back to ourselves to explain our complicated lives.

liars lying believe
Charlie Munger Projections are put together by people who have an interest in a particular outcome, have a subconscious bias, and its apparent precision makes it fallacious.

The vague and tenuous hope that God is 'too kind' to punish the ungodly has become deadly opiate for the consciences of millions.
