Better to get hurt by the truth than comforted with a lie.

And that's the thing about people who mean everything they say. They think everyone else does too.

Writing fiction is the act of weaving a series of lies to arrive at a greater truth.

It's how you were made. And that's not such a bad thing because your saving grace is that you've never lied to yourself about it. Not about that.

The Face of Innocence is disguised by the Mask of Deceit. Only the Truth can remove it.

You know there's no such thing as a complete lie. There's always some truth in there.
