Benjamin E. Mays A lie never lives to be old. Sophocles Champagne, if you are seeking the truth, is better than a lie detector. It encourages a man to be expansive, even reckless, while lie detectors are only a challenge to tell lies successfully. Graham Greene No lie ever reaches old age. Sophocles New York is something awful, something monstrous. I like to walk the streets, lost, but I recognize that New York is the world's greatest lie. New York is Senegal with machines. Federico Garcia Lorca The greatest talents often lie buried out of sight. Titus Maccius Plautus Violence can only be concealed by a lie, and the lie can only be maintained by violence. Any man who has once proclaimed violence as his method is inevitably forced to take the lie as his principle. Alexander Solzehnitsyn In our country the lie has become not just a moral category but a pillar of the State. Alexander Solzehnitsyn We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter. Denis Diderot I sometimes lie, especially about personal things, because what does it matter? I am a kind of minute commodity, my name is no longer my own. River Phoenix I try to lie as much as I can when I'm interviewed. It's reverse psychology. I figure if you lie, they'll print the truth. River Phoenix A good portion of speaking will consist in knowing how to lie. Desiderius Erasmus I never quite understood these actors - though I envy them sometimes - who can lie out for a year or two. I feel as though time is a real pressing issue, and I want to get as much work done in the time that I have left. Sylvester Stallone I have a punishing workout regimen. Every day I do 3 minutes on a treadmill, then I lie down, drink a glass of vodka and smoke a cigarette. Anthony Hopkins A lie has no leg, but a scandal has wings. Thomas Fuller My mother taught me that when you stand in the truth and someone tells a lie about you, don't fight it. Whitney Houston This is a nation that has lost the ability to be self-critical, and that makes a lie out of the freedoms. Joni Mitchell Never to lie is to have no lock on your door, you are never wholly alone. Elizabeth Bowen The innocent are so few that two of them seldom meet - when they do meet, their victims lie strewn all round. Elizabeth Bowen To Live signifies to believe and hope - to lie and to lie to oneself. Emile M. Cioran |
