“Remember, any lie you are told, even deliberately, is often a more significant fact than a truth told in all sincerity.”

“Bishop: No verifying! If people tell lies, that's as may be. If they've come up with some credo or other, so much the better! Don't forget that few people are likely to tell more than a small part of the truth: no one tells much of the truth, let alone the whole truth. Spoken words are facts in themselves, whether true or false. When people talk they reveal themselves, whether they're lying or telling the truth. Embi: And if I find them out in a lie? Bishop: Never speak ill of anyone in a report. Remember, any lie you are told, even deliberately, is often a more significant fact than a truth told in all sincerity.”

“You are not as insignificant as you have often been told, nor are you any more significant than you have often told yourself.”

“A lie told often enough becomes the truth.”

“Too much truth in the hands of a liar is more dangerous than a world of lies told to the truthful”

“I think that when the lies are all told and forgot the truth will be there yet. It dont move about from place to place and it dont change from time to time. You cant corrupt it any more than you can salt salt.”
