Who said Repeat a lie often enough and it will believed?

[Edit]

Answer

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it...." is regularly attributed to Joseph Goebbels. However, I have found no evidence that he said it. Everyone quotes everyone else, but no one ever gives a source.

"A lie told often enough becomes truth" Vladimir Lenin.


William James (1842-1910) The father of modern Psychology "There's nothing so absurd that if you repeat it often enough, people will believe it."
