facts was stubborn, unrelenting, steadfast and immutable. these things do not make for popularity, in these times of wavy lines, grey areas and fuzzy edges

“One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. 'Oh, no!', I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”

ETA: sorry, my mistake. Further research shows that we lost Principles somewhere around the time of the Eiswnhower Administration. Never mind.
