"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Security, Training, and Paranoia
Submitted by Westernerd on Sat, 2011-09-17 03:00
"Be careful that you do not become so paranoid that you begin seeing ghosts around every corner and demons under every street light. Temper your paranoia with solid training, approach every relationship with the sure knowledge that while it may not fail there is a very real likelihood that the individuals you friend are not who they seem. A Russian proverb made popular in the United States says, “doveryai, no proveryai” or, trust, but verify."
