honesty ideas special
The values of science and the values of democracy are concordant, in many cases indistinguishable.

lying enemy facts
The great enemy of truth is very often not the lie--deliberate, contrived and dishonest--but the myth--persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears.

It is turned out of towns and cities for a dangerous thing, and every man that means to live well endeavors to trust to himself and live without it.
