Nothing is True, Everything is Permitted― 
The quote is said to be the last words of Hassan-i-Sabbah (1034–1124). The honcho of a group of assassins. And a state leader.
Picked up by Nietzsche.
Then the quote was popularized in a book called Alamut by Vladimir Bartol.
Later. Nothing is true, everything is permitted, became the Assassins’ Creed. Allegedly.
“To say that nothing is true is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization.
“To say that everything is permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious… or tragic.”
Supposedly attributed to Ezio Auditore Da Firenze.
The anonymous letter in The New York Times from a Senior White House Official? The usual suspects – Dan Coats, that Conway woman or Trump himself are your smart bets.
Frankly, I’ll be honest, I’m convinced the author of that scurrilously accurate appraisal of the inside of Trump’s brain can only be Q.
Pronounced “queue.”
You know who I mean.
Amorality, my ass.
