“humans are born in truth, but we grow up believing in lies. one of the biggest lies in the story of humanity is the lie of our imperfection.”

“The newest truth about truth lies in the truth that human truths can lie, when they are parts-of-the-truth.Call them 'white-lies' or 'black-truths', they are both true and a lie.”

“A constant human error: to believe in an end to one's fantasies. Our daydreams are the measure of our unreachable truth. The secret of all things lies in the emptiness of the formula that guard them.”

“We make our own truths and lies....Truths are often lies and lies truths...”

“Truth is a risky proposition. It's the nature of mediocre human beings to believe that lies are necessary, that they serve a purpose, that truth is subversive, that candor is dangerous, that the very scaffold of communal life is supported by lies.”

“The major flaw with human beings is that despite all our cleverness and ingenuity we both tell and believe lies.”
