Governments want to control information. To do this, they have elaborate systems for promoting themselves via propaganda departments and for ensuring confidentiality with official-secrets laws. There are good reasons for these: people need information, and national security deserves secrecy.

Jacob Rees-Mogg

Like any good lawyer, I'm going to maintain a confidentiality of advice offered in confidence.

Ari Melber

A reporter's ability to keep the bond of confidentiality often enables him to learn the hidden or secret aspects of government.

Bob Woodward

I was an assistant once. I worked for Rob Reiner and his family. I did sign a confidentiality agreement, though.

Cheryl Hines

The fact that doctors tend to treat people as individuals, guided by the need to ensure patient confidentiality, can reinforce this pattern of seeing the changes and challenges aging brings on through our heads and our bodies, rather than as a shared experience.

Chuck Norris

Confidentiality is a virtue of the loyal, as loyalty is the virtue of faithfulness.

Edwin Louis Cole

In intelligence work, there are limits to the amount of information one can share. Confidentiality is essential.

Gijs de Vries

In almost every profession - whether it's law or journalism, finance or medicine or academia or running a small business - people rely on confidential communications to do their jobs.

Hillary Clinton

Governments want to control information. To do this, they have elaborate systems for promoting themselves via propaganda departments and for ensuring confidentiality with official-secrets laws. There are good reasons for these: people need information, and national security deserves secrecy.

Jacob Rees-Mogg

I am outraged that a House member has tried through this provision to breach the traditional confidentiality of individual Americans' tax returns. There is no reason for this measure, and this last-minute act violates all principles of judgment and common sense.

John Warner

Confidentiality is an ancient and well-warranted social value.

Kay Redfield Jamison

The values of confidentiality of matters occurring before the grand jury is very important.

Ken Starr

So what I was essentially doing was, I compromised the confidentiality of their proprietary software to advance my agenda of becoming the best at breaking through the lock.

Kevin Mitnick

There are, in the King case in particular, some names of confidential informants, persons to whom we promised confidentiality in return for their testimony. We have put their testimony in the public domain, but feel that their names should continue to be anonymous.

Louis Stokes

If I were to make public these tapes, containing blunt and candid remarks on many different subjects, the confidentiality of the office of the president would always be suspect.
