“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”
― Carl Sagan

I believe this is from Carl Sagan's book The Demon Haunted World. A fantastic read, and one I recommend to anyone who will listen.
Til: to bamboozle is a real verb
