Those in authority must retain the public’s trust. The way to do that is to distort nothing, to put the best face on nothing, to try to manipulate no one.

Where do you get your fantastic ideas from? You steal them. You steal them from reality. It outstrips fantasy most the time.

~from The Kane Chronicles Book Two: The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan
