He that is slow to believe anything and everything is of great understanding, for belief in one false principle is the beginning of all unwisdom. Compton
Whenever, therefore, a lie has built unto itself a throne, let it be assailed without pity and without regret, for under the domination of an inconvenient falsehood, no one can prosper. Compton
