Author of quotes: Gianni Rodari

It seems to me that the most dangerous enemies of humanity are liars. There are hundreds of thousands of liars in the world. A liar is a journalist who writes “freedom” and thinks about the freedom with which capitalists exploit workers and imperialists squeeze the juice out of colonial peoples. A liar is someone who says “peace” but in reality stands for war. A liar is someone who talks about “human dignity”, but in reality advocates humility and submission, teaches silence in the face of injustice, and turns a blind eye to poverty. Without wishing to offend anyone, I believe that there are liars in every part of the world. Every country has or had its own liars, and it’s very good if one or another country managed to overcome lies.
