Nothing is hidden from the eyes of the observing world.

I will never again command an army in America if we must carry along paid spies. I will banish myself to some foreign country first.

There is nothing makes a man suspect much, more than to know little.

If you read somebody’s diary, you get what you deserve.

Secrets define us, they mark us, they set us apart from all the others. The secrets which we preserve provide a key to who we are, deep down.

To know all is not to forgive all. It is to despise everybody.

Even a paranoid can have enemies.

Once suspicion is aroused, everything feeds it.

Spies are of no use nowadays. Their profession is over. The newspapers do their work instead.

Guard more faithfully the secret which is confided to you than the money which is entrusted to your care.

There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.

For sooner will men hold fire in their mouths than keep a secret.

Secrets are rarely betrayed or discovered according to any program our fear has sketched out.
