John Kennedy and the Myths of the World

Read a fasincating quote from John Kennedy this week, and am wondering what the source of it might be. Any help would be appreciated. It read:

The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth – persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of truth.”
