“It is not only by dint of lying to others, but also of lying to ourselves, that we cease to notice that we are lying.”
“The lies we tell other people are nothing to the lies we tell ourselves.”
“We lie the loudest when we lie to ourselves.”
“We lie best when we lie to ourselves.”
“…we all lie to ourselves; we tell our own selves more lies than we ever do other people.”
“There were lies we told to save ourselves, and then there were lies we told to rescue others. What counted more, the mistruth, or the greater good?”
