#selfdeception

DRYDEN: If we’ve told lies you’ve told half-lies … And a man who tells lies — like me — merely hides the truth. (softly) But a man who tells half-lies … has forgotten where he put it.

Robert Bolt (1924-1995) English dramatist
Lawrence of Arabia, Part 2, sc. 189 (1962) [with Michael Wilson]

It's difficult to get a man to understand something when his cash flow depends on his not understanding it.

“In the realm of politics, #arendt said, perhaps political #selfdeception is the greatest threat. The self-deceived politician, “loses all contact, not only with his audience but with the real world which will catch up with him”. In another sobering moment, Arendt reflects that perhaps the person who is most likely to be an “an ideal victim of complete manipulation is the President of the United States” themselves. “ #trump

A quotation from Joseph Heller

The chaplain had mastered, in a moment of divine intuition, the handy technique of protective rationalization, and he was exhilarated by his discovery. It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.

Joseph Heller (1923-1999) American novelist
Catch-22, ch. 34 “Thanksgiving” (1961)

«
We become so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that at last we are disguised to ourselves.

A quotation from La Rochefoucauld, Francois:

«
It is as easy to deceive oneself without perceiving it, as it is difficult to deceive others without their perceiving it.

[Il est aussi facile de se tromper soi-même sans s’en apercevoir qu’il est difficile de tromper les autres sans qu’ils s’en aperçoivent.]

Nur ein Rückblick

Alltagsbrei
Wie geht es mir nach zwei Monaten Umschulung zur Kauffrau im Gesundheitswesen?

Nun ja, was soll ich sagen.
Es ist anstrengend, aber es macht auch wahnsinnig Spaß.
Die Kollegen sind richtig nett und wir sind uns auch schon ans Herz gewachsen, hätte nicht gedacht das eine Gruppe von 22 Leuten wie Faust aufs Auge zusammenpassen können.
Ende Oktober gibt es das erste Treffen in Eisenach, von allen der Mittelpunkt, jeder hat in etwa die gleiche Fahrzeit.

Die Themen sind sehr interessant und meine Bausteinprüfungen laufen bisher richtig gut.

Ich bin mittlerweile von zwei Tage die Woche im Home Office ins komplette Home Office gewechselt und hab jetzt auf meinem Schreibtisch 4 Monitore stehen. 😁

Electing candidates just because they say the things you would like to hear is a very poor way of deciding who gets power and leadership, I would say.
