the literal definition is a well known for some bad quality or deed. Just think of a bad person in history. We would call that person Infamous because of his actions. This goes the same for Infamy. Hes saying that this horrible attack will live in Infamy(which means well known terrible thing) we will remember forever. Hope this helps

Read the following quote from Mark Twain. "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything."
Tpy6a [65]

The correct answer is: D) It's a lot easier to remember what actually happened than to remeber how you twisted the truth to convince someone to vote your way.

If you tell the truth, the actual facts will back up your story, the only thing you must do to is go back to them and they will tell you what happened. That is the reason Mark Twain says you don't have to remeber anything. Even your senses will have memories of the experiences you lived.

If a politician lies or exaggerates he is inventing something that never happened, it will be difficult to support those lies because there is not empirical evidence of that. If someone investigates there won't be data to back up the politicians statements and he would be in trouble.

Option B says truth has a way of coming back to haunt you.  As I said, the truth is supported on the evidence. Lies fall because they don´t. Mark Twain doesn't make emphasis on this part of lying, on the consecuences of telling a lie.

Option C implies using lies to convince someone of something, Mark Twain is talking about telling the truth so it is incorrect.
