All too often our deceptions and duplicity are discovered. In the information age in which we live, it's even more likely that lies will sooner or later be seen for what they are. Dishonesty is just plain inefficient. The right thing to do is seldom the easy thing to do. But it's worth it.
Nothing astonishes men so much as common sense and plain dealing.
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attach it. Ignorance may deride it. But in the end, there it is. If humanity does not opt for integrity we are through completely.
