“Sometimes, we need little lies to save our pride. And sometimes we need big lies to save our souls.”
“Sometimes, we need to be strangers to ourselves. Then the hidden light in our soul will illuminate what we need to see.”
“Most times we only see things for the way we are. But we're good at lying to ourselves. Sometimes we need somebody who's not living in our skin to point out how things really are.”
“Fiction comes in all shapes and sizes. Secrets,lies,stories. We all tell them. Sometimes,because we hope to entertain. Sometimes,because we need to distract. And sometimes, because we have to.”
“Sometimes lying was the better part of valor and the only way to save a man’s butt.”
“Our early success, blessing that it was, made us complacent and we weren't sufficiently afraid of what came next. Sometimes having a little fear early saves one from experiencing a big fear later on. [Al Gleeson in THE HALCYON DISLOCATION]”
