Musings
"People convince themselves of their own lies, becoming victims of their
own inventions as they begin to direct their lives by standards of
behavior, ideas, feelings, or instincts which do not correspond to their
inner reality. What is truly serious in this matter is that the
individual loses all points of reference regarding what comprises truth,
and what comprises lies. (S)He becomes used to considering as true only
that which is convenient for his/her personal interest; everything that is
in opposition to his/her self-esteem or in conflict with already established
prejudices, he considers false."
