lies

The urge to want some bit of information to be true often clouds our ability to assess why that information may be false.

People will believe a big lie sooner than a little one, and if you repeat it frequently enough, people will sooner or later believe it.

The more you believe, the more you'll be leaving you, when what you believed turns out to be just lies. Or unjust lies. Or any lies, anyway.

In the end, there's only one thing you can believe. Bodies are honest; they don't lie.

But the truth is that no person ever understands another, from beginning to end of life, there is no truth that can be known, only the story we imagine to be true, the story they really believe to be true about themselves; and all of them lies.

To promise is to grant the future, it's a lie waiting to happen

Beware the God who seeks praise. Beware the guru who presumes to teach that which is unfixed and boundless. Beware the healer who sets a price on aid. Beware the lover who would make you a lesser version of yourself. Beware the doctrines that discourage independent thought. Beware any person of faith who doesn__ understand doubt. Filter all things through yourself. Accept only that which sits right with your soul.

The way to happiness is by truth. Seek to be true in all things and you will have a foundation to build your future.

The apocalypse was supposed to be cliché drama, Godzilla roaming the streets and zombies crawling from graves to devour the living. I guess all of humankind wanted to believe they__ end with a bang instead of unnoticed silence. We all, deep down, want to believe in a future where our historical monuments and literature hold significance. We want our deaths to be important. We want to matter.

There are different ways to be confused about how someone's disappointed you. Some lie about the future because they wanted to forget the past. But some will lie about the past because they think it will give you both a future.

Lies can open up the doors to imagination.

One who enjoys finding errors will then start creating errors to find.

Then the liars and swearers are fools, for there are liars and swearers enough to beat the honest men and hang up them.

What would you do if you saw something nobody else could see?__he tape gun fell out of Luke__ hand, and hit the tiled hearth. He knelt to pick it up, not looking at her. __ou mean if I were the only witness to a crime, that sort of thing?___o.

When you are posessed by evil spirits, it is crafty manipulations that you follow; but when you are posessed by the Holy Spirit of God, it is wise discretions you pursue!

Yesterday, she shed tears, keeping her head on my shoulders. And I think she's not going to be fine because I know she won't. Because a couple of years back, I wasn't.And when you know that you've fallen hard on a cold ground and are still lying there, what do you tell others who are taking the fall?You close your eyes. You accept to lie there a little longer. But I lie on my bed now, and it's a little too warm today.

And now, Elric had told three lies. The first concerned his cousin Yyrkoon. The second concerned the Black Sword. The third concerned Cymoril. And upon those three lies was Elric's destiny to be built, for it is only about things which concern us most profoundly that we lie clearly and with profound conviction.
