Believe no-one, doubt everything and remember, everyone lies". ~Prof. Nick Fennimore

If we sometimes lie and sometimes tell the truth, no one can be certain what they are hearing at any given time. Like yin and yang, truth and lies are inseparable, each containing a seed of the other, no words are ever entirely true or entirely untrue.

Lies--and again lies--it amazes me, the amount of lies we had told to us this morning."

A half-truth is even more dangerous than a lie. A lie, you can detect at some stage, but half a truth is sure to mislead you for long.

Truth does not need publicity, lies do.
