A man calumniated is doubly injured - first by him who utters the calumny, and then by him who believes it.
Herodotus
All truth is simple... is that not doubly a lie?
Friedrich Nietzsche

Patrick MacGill
Never neglect details. When everyone's mind is dulled or distracted the leader must be doubly vigilant.
Colin Powell
Power always has to be kept in check; power exercised in secret, especially under the cloak of national security, is doubly dangerous.
William Proxmire
The theoretically unrestricted right to develop power, to wage war against other states, is antisocial and is doubly dangerous, because the state as a mass entity represents a low moral and intellectual level.
Christian Lous Lange
Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
Douglas Adams
When thinking about companions gone, we feel ourselves doubly alone.
Walter Scott
