"Never tell a lie-except for practice...." - Quote by Mark Twain

“Honesty is often the best policy, but sometimes the appearance of it is worth six of it.”

“It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.”

“Optimist: day-dreamer in his small clothes.”

“The worse part of being lied to is when you realize you believed it.”

“It was curious to think that the sky was the same for everybody, in Eurasia or Eastasia as well as here. And the people under the sky were also very much the same--everywhere, all over the world, hundreds or thousands of millions of people just like this, people ignorant of one another's existence, held apart by walls of hatred and lies, and yet almost exactly the same--people who had never learned to think but were storing up in their hearts and bellies and muscles the power that would one day overturn the world.”

“There are three kinds of liars: liars, damned liars, and statisticians”

“Truth is only an illusion we have forgotten is an illusion.”

“It is impossible to say all that we think, even to our truest Friend. We may bid him farewell forever sooner than complain, for our complaint is too well grounded to be uttered.”

“The value of many men and books rests solely on their faculty for compelling all to seek out the most hidden and intimate things.”
