All men are born truthful and die liars.

Luc de Clapiers

A liar is a man who does now know how to deceive, a flatterer one who only deceives fools: he who knows how to make skilful use of the truth, and understands its eloquence, can alone pride himself in cleverness.

Lord Chesterfield

One man affirms that he has rode post a hundred miles in six hours; probably it is a lie; but supposing it to be true, what then? Why, he is a very good post-boy; that is all.

There were also people like Scott Ritter who were saying quite accurately what was going on.

Dear Mr. President: ...
