Quotations regarding 'Misleading'

Choose a letter: 
It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too.
Douglas Adams, English Writer (1952-2001)
An educated person is one who has learned that information almost always turns out to be at best incomplete and very often false, misleading, fictitious, mendacious - just dead wrong.
Russell Baker, American Journalist (1925-  )
There is a misleading, unwritten rule that states if a quote giving advice comes from someone famous, very old, or Greek, then it must be good advice.
Bo Bennett, American Businessman (1972-  )
The World War broke out with such elemental violence, and with such resort to all means for leading or misleading public opinion, that no time was available for reflection and consideration.
Hjalmar Branting, Swedish Statesman (1860-1925)
The lessons taught in great books are misleading. The commerce in life is rarely so simple and never so just.
Anita Brookner, English Historian (1938-  )
I am one who believes that one of the greatest dangers of advertising is not that of misleading people, but that of boring them to death.
Leo Burnett, American Businessman (1891-1971)
I like, though, that people have a hunger to connect with other people. They're desperate to know that you're not lying to them or misleading them.
Augusten Burroughs, American Writer (1965-  )
Though analogy is often misleading, it is the least misleading thing we have.
Samuel Butler, British Poet (1835-1902)
There is a reasonable concern that posting raw data can be misleading for those who are not trained in its use and who do not have the broader perspective within which to place a particular piece of data that is raw.
Stephen Cambone, American Politician
In examining the CIA's past and present use of the U.S. media, the Committee finds two reasons for concern. The first is the potential, inherent in covert media operations, for manipulating or incidentally misleading the American public.
Frank Church, American Politician (1924-1984)
Everyone has a right to change their consciousness, but ultimately the whole process is misleading.
Robyn Hitchcock, English Musician (1953-  )
Once again we have misleading climate change pronouncements being based on data errors, data errors detected by non-UN, non-IPCC, non-peer-reviewed external observers. This is exactly what happens when you base your arguments on 'consensus science' and not scientific fact.
Doug L. Hoffman, Scientist
But even in the Christian religion, much of its real meaning is hidden by words that are misleading and symbols that but few understand.
Ernest Holmes, American Theologian
Long run is a misleading guide to current affairs. In the long run we are all dead.
John Maynard Keynes, English Economist (1883-1946)
Even as you enter the fourth year after the Sept. 11 attacks, Bush is still misleading and deluding you and hiding the real reason from you.
Osama bin Laden, Criminal (1957-2011)
One of the worst things to come out of the Consumer Protection Board's misleading claims is the impression that government resources are to hard to get and just aren't available for regular people like you and I.
Matthew Lesko, American Entertainer
The president's claim that Social Security is going broke is misleading at best. The sky is not falling, although there is no doubt that the system needs to be strengthened.
Grace Napolitano, American Politician (1936-  )
French and German illustrate the misleading character of apparent grammatical simplicity just as well.
Edward Sapir, American Scientist (1884-1939)
There are few things more dishonorable than misleading the young.
Thomas Sowell, American Economist (1930-  )
How often misused words generate misleading thoughts.
Herbert Spencer, English Philosopher (1820-1903)
