  • One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth.

  • Successful democratic politicians are insecure and intimidated men. They advance politically only as they placate, appease, bribe, seduce, bamboozle, or otherwise manage to manipulate the demanding and threatening elements in their constituencies.

Politicians rationalize this servitude by saying that in a democracy public men are the servants of the people.

    "Essays in the Public Philosophy". Book by Walter Lippmann, 1955.
