If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
If you tell the truth, you don't need a long memory.
If you tell the truth you do not need a good memory!
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.
The liar's punishment is not in the least that he is not believed, but that he cannot believe anyone else.
O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive!
Truth is beautiful, without doubt; but so are lies.
Who lies for you will lie against you.
The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable.
If a lie is only printed often enough, it becomes a quasi-truth, and if such a truth is repeated often enough, it becomes an article of belief, a dogma, and men will die for it.
Things come apart so easily when they have been held together with lies.
The cruelest lies are often told in silence.
I do not mind lying, but I hate inaccuracy.
As scarce as truth is, the supply has always been in excess of the demand.
We lie loudest when we lie to ourselves.
Any fool can tell the truth, but it requires a man of some sense to know how to lie well.
A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
