Ah, Goebbels - there's a surname to conjure with! Or... in the case of our parents/grandparents generation... to compose catchy ditties with!

The more well-known branch of the family was disarmingly honest in ITS dishonesty:

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State -- Joseph Goebbels

He may well have gone to hell, but that certainly won't have wiped the grin of satisfaction off his face!
