An educated person is one who has learned that information almost always turns out to be at best incomplete and very often false, misleading, fictitious, mendacious - just dead wrong.
Russell Baker
But even in the Christian religion, much of its real meaning is hidden by words that are misleading and symbols that but few understand.
Ernest Holmes
Even as you enter the fourth year after the Sept. 11 attacks, Bush is still misleading and deluding you and hiding the real reason from you.
Osama bin Laden
Everyone has a right to change their consciousness, but ultimately the whole process is misleading.
Robyn Hitchcock
French and German illustrate the misleading character of apparent grammatical simplicity just as well.
Edward Sapir
How often misused words generate misleading thoughts.
Herbert Spencer
I am one who believes that one of the greatest dangers of advertising is not that of misleading people, but that of boring them to death.
Leo Burnett
I like, though, that people have a hunger to connect with other people. They're desperate to know that you're not lying to them or misleading them.
Augusten Burroughs
In examining the CIA's past and present use of the U.S. media, the Committee finds two reasons for concern. The first is the potential, inherent in covert media operations, for manipulating or incidentally misleading the American public.
Frank Church
It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too.
Douglas Adams
Long run is a misleading guide to current affairs. In the long run we are all dead.
John Maynard Keynes
National film industries tend to move in cycles. In Australia right now, we're on a high, a feeling of potential, which as yet shows no sign of flagging. But the word "industry" is misleading. A small national cinema has no industry in the Hollywood sense.
Peter Weir
Nothing is more misleading to the youth of a nation than to state the outcome immediately after the beginning as if nothing could have taken place in between.
Gustav Stresemann
Once again we have misleading climate change pronouncements being based on data errors, data errors detected by non-UN, non-IPCC, non-peer-reviewed external observers. This is exactly what happens when you base your arguments on 'consensus science' and not scientific fact.
Doug Hoffman
One of the most misleading representational techniques in our language is the use of the word 'I.'
Ludwig Wittgenstein
One of the worst things to come out of the Consumer Protection Board's misleading claims is the impression that government resources are to hard to get and just aren't available for regular people like you and I.
Matthew Lesko
The idea that men are created free and equal is both true and misleading: men are created different; they lose their social freedom and their individual autonomy in seeking to become like each other.
David Riesman
The lessons taught in great books are misleading. The commerce in life is rarely so simple and never so just.
Anita Brookner
The president's claim that Social Security is going broke is misleading at best. The sky is not falling, although there is no doubt that the system needs to be strengthened.
Grace Napolitano
The use of the term art medium is, to say the least, misleading, for it is the artist that creates a work of art not the medium. It is the artist in photography that gives form to content by a distillation of ideas, thought, experience, insight and understanding.
Edward Steichen
