Quotation

[1] "The average citizen is the world’s most efficient censor. His own mind is the greatest barrier between him and the facts. His own ‘logic proof compartments,’ his own absolutism are the obstacles which prevent him from seeing in terms of experience and thought rather than in terms of group reaction." -- Bernays, Crystallizing Public Opinion

I would like to insert this quotation into the text of the article. Any objection?

A topic of....

Truth has been added as there is little research conducted on the relationship between this article topic and Truth http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&lr=&newwindow=1&q=allintitle%3A+truth+public+opinion&btnG=Search --222.67.200.2 (talk) 11:58, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes, public opinion overrides truth and vise versa sometimes. If the former happens, it appears to be the fact that the public opinion is misleaded and truth is not revealed properly --222.67.200.2 (talk) 12:04, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In this sense, my google scholar's search may also be biased as there is no other independent search engine available publicly for obtaining the academic resources. The academic resources are only unbiasly open to the people who have the advantages of accessing them both commercially and publicly. --222.64.218.216 (talk) 12:39, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
