Zitat des Tages über Selbsttäuschung / Self-Delusion:

Politicians or pundits can distort or cherry-pick climate science any way they want to try and gain temporary influence with the public. But any serious industrialist who's facing 'climate exposure' - as it's now called by money managers - cannot afford to engage in that sort of self-delusion. Clive Thompson

I suppose I have a highly developed capacity for self-delusion, so it's no problem for me to believe that I'm somebody else!

Daniel Day-Lewis

Self-delusion is pulling in your stomach when you step on the scales.

Paul Sweeney

I learned that I never really know the true story of my guests' lives, that I have to content myself with knowing that when I'm interviewing somebody, I'm getting a combination of fact and truth and self-mythology and self-delusion and selective memory and faulty memory.

Terry Gross

Antonio Garcia Martinez

Every time one can write a self-deluded song, you are way ahead of the game, way ahead. Self-delusion is the basis of nearly all the great scenes in all the great plays, from 'Oedipus' to 'Hamlet.'

Stephen Sondheim
