HEREâS AN IDEA FOR YOUâ¦
One of the most irritating ways you will encounter shills today is in any bid process. Fake bidders are used to raise a price, and not just on eBay. Resist competing in any auction where someone seems too enthusiastic to raise a price. Itâs not that they know something you donât. Theyâre often shills.
27 PURE QUACKERY
The world is full of charlatans, quacks and well-meaning fools who exploit our willingness to believe. Theyâre just as powerful as ever.
When alchemy fell into disrepute âa new delusion, based on the power of imagination, suddenly aroseâ, as Mackay puts it in his chapter on magnetisers.
DEFINING IDEAâ¦
Homoeopathy is insignificant as an art of healing, but of great value as criticism on the medical practice of the time.
~ RALPH WALDO EMERSON
