Deceiving Quotes
While we are indifferent to our good qualities, we keep on deceiving ourselves in regard to our faults, until we come to look on them as virtues.
- Heinrich Heine

When we start deceiving ourselves into thinking not that we want something or need something, not that it is a pragmatic necessity for us to have it, but that it is a moral imperative that we have it, then is when we join the fashionable madmen, and then is when the thin whine of hysteria is heard in the land, and then is when we are in bad trouble.
- Joan Didion

We have a great chance to be an NCAA basketball tournament team if we take care of business night in and night out in our league. Records are deceiving. You can schedule your way into a 10-1 or 11-0 record. I have learned that you're not going to trick the NCAA tournament selection committee.
- Mark Gottfried

We are a legitimate final-four team. We have played a difficult schedule against a lot of bigger schools. And we have had players not available for certain games. One of our best players was in Argentina for four games. We had a lot of our losses during Christmas break when a lot of kids were away for vacation. Our record was deceiving, so very deceiving.
- Alvin James

Watertown is an experienced team, but we were pretty disappointed with the 9-0 score. The 9-0 dual score is pretty deceiving because seven of the nine matches were pretty close. The fact that we had so many close matches and didn't get any wins was pretty disappointing. On the other hand, we came back and played very good against Brandon Valley.
- Colette Quam
