Lies - damned lies - and statistics

Statistics are like bikinis. What they reveal is suggestive,
but what they conceal is vital.
- Aaron Levenstein

Satan delights equally in statistics and in quoting scripture...
- H.G. Wells

It is easy to lie with statistics. It is hard
to tell the truth without it.
- Andrejs Dunkels
