Explanation:

A quote refers to the repetition or use of the words said by someone which is usually related to some specific idea the author uses to support his own ideas or refer to a different idea. In the case of the quote presented by the American writer Mark Twain "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything" the quote refers to the importance of avoiding to lie as lying implies remembering the false version which in some cases is difficult as this version can be forgotten. This means if this quote is linked to the idea of politic propaganda it suggests saying the truth for politicians is better as in this way it is easier for them to remember everything than to remember the false version of everything such as false promises or false statements politicians say to make people vote of them. Thus, Mark Twain's suggest regarding political propaganda that " It's a lot easier to remember what actually happened than to remember how you twisted the truth to convince someone to vote your way".
