"One of the impressive things about paranoid literature is the 
contrast between its fantasied conclusions and the almost touching 
concern with factuality that it invariably shows. It produces heroic 
strivings for evidence to prove that the unbelievable is the only 
thing that can be believed."

Hofstadter, Richard, "The Paranoid Style in American Politics," 1964
