Lies quotations

◆ It is necessary to the happiness of man that he be mentally faithful to himself. Infidelity does not consist in believing, or in disbelieving, it consists in professing to believe what he does not believe.

- Thomas Paine99

◆ There's that horrible-beautiful moment, that bitter-sweet impasse where you know that somebody is bullshitting you but they're doing it with such panache and conviction...no, it's because they say exactly what you want to hear, at that point in time.

- Irvine Welsh99

◆ We wait and think and doubt and hate. How does it make you feel? The overwhelming feeling is rage. We hate ourself for being unable to be other than what we are. Unable to be better. We feel rage. The feelings must be followed. It doesn't matter whether you're an ideologue or a sensualist, you follow the stimuli thinking that they're your signposts to the promised land. But they are nothing of the kind. What they are is rocks to navigate the past, each on your brush against, ripping you a little more open and they are always more on the horizon. But you can't face up to the that, so you force yourself to believe the bullshit of those you instinctively know are liars and you repeat those lies to yourself and to others, hoping that by repeating them often and fervently enough you'll attain the godlike status we accord those who tell the lies most frequently and most passionately. But you never do, and even if you could, you wouldn't value it, you'd realise that nobody believes in heroes any more. We know that they only want to sell us something we don't really want and keep from us what we really do need. Maybe that's a good thing. Maybe we're getting in touch with our condition at last. It's horrible how we always die alone, but no worse than living alone.

- Irvine Welsh99

◆ The lie took form as she spoke, pulling on as many strands of truth as it could reach.

- Scott Westerfeld99

◆ If you've treated your girlfriend without respect, taken advantage of her, or cheated on her, your actions have taught her that she has no value. Needless to say, this is a serious, serious injury. If you don't try to make it right, she might start to believe the lie you've told her and spend the rest of her life thinking she deserves poor treatment.

- Josh Shipp99

◆ For people who say they hate being lied to, just start telling them nothing but the pure truth--about everything. That will teach them

- Seth Adam Brown99

◆ Language always betrays us, tells the truth when we want to lie, and dissolves into formlessness when we would most like to be precise.

- Jeanette Winterson99

◆ Everything he had ever done that had been better left undone. Every lie he had told — told to himself, or told to others. Every little hurt, and all the great hurts. Each one was pulled out of him, detail by detail, inch by inch. The demon stripped away the cover of forgetfulness, stripped everything down to truth, and it hurt more than anything.

- Neil Gaiman99

◆ There are so many stupid things that steal that purpose from us. The stupid things that you believe a lie that we ‘re not as important as we really are. That our life isn't as important as it really is. It's important to the people that you love, it's important to the people that you will love in the future, it's important to the world around you and it's so important that you fulfill the purpose that only you can fulfill the way that you can fulfill that.

- Lacey Mosley99

◆ On average, women are better liars than men. But the best liars are men, because politicians are still predominantly men.?

- Jarod Kintz99

◆ A friend once said, and I found to be true,That everyday people, they lie to God too,So what makes you think, that they won't lie to you.

- Lauryn Hill99

◆ Not only did I lie about lying, but I lied about lying about lying. And you'd better believe that's the truth. ?

- Jarod Kintz99

◆ I survive at the edge of friends circles.

- Holly Black99

◆ The worst feeling in the world is to know you were used and lied to by some one you trusted.

- Abhishek Tiwari99

◆ When you love someone, you give everything without thinking twice, deny the truth, believe in lies, do crazy things that you can't explain and cry over things that hurt you but still stay and say, I'm okay.
