“Malcolm Muggeridge, himself a wartime SIS officer, warned in his autobiography: ‘Diplomats and Intelligence, in my experience, are even bigger liars than journalists, and the historians who try to reconstruct the past out of their records are, for the most part, dealing with fantasy’.”

Nigel West – “MI5 – British Security Service Operations 1909-1945 - “The True Story of the Most Secret Counterespionage Organization in the World”   (Stein and Day, NY 1981, p. 13)
