The only lies for which we are truly punished are those we tell ourselves.
V. S. NAIPAUL
There be three degrees of this hiding and veiling of a man's self. The first, closeness, reservation, and secrecy; when a man leaveth himself without observation, or without hold to be taken, what he is. The second, dissimulation, in the negative; when a man lets fall signs and arguments, that he is not, that he is. And the third, simulation, in the affirmative; when a man industriously and expressly feigns and pretends to be, that he is not.
SIR FRANCIS BACON
Exaggeration is a blood relation to falsehood and nearly as blamable.
HOSEA BALLOU
We cannot teach children the danger of telling lies to men without realising, on the man's part, the danger of telling lies to children. A single untruth on the part of the master will destroy the results of his education.
JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU
Nothing is rarer than a solitary lie; for lies breed like Surinam toads; you cannot tell one but out it comes with a hundred young ones on its back.
WASHINGTON ALLSTON
The most intangible, and therefore the worst, kind of lie is a half truth. This is the peculiar device of a conscientious detractor.
