Lies

There are Five kinds of lies: Lies, Damned Lies, Statistics, Politicians quoting statistics, and Novelists quoting Politicians on Statistics

If one is to be called a liar, one may as well make an effort to deserve the name.

A. A. Milne (1882-1956)

Bernard M. Baruch (1870-1965)

Never to lie is to have no lock on your door, you are never wholly alone

Elizabeth Bowen (1899-1973)

Debts and lies are generally mixed together

François Rabelais (1490-1553)

Telling lies and showing off to get attention are mistakes I made that I don't want my kids to make.

Jane Fonda (1937-)

The difficulty lies, not in the new ideas, but in escaping the old ones, which ramify, for those brought up as most of us have been, into every corner of our minds.

John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946)

A lie is an excuse guarded

Jonathan Swift (1667-1745)

People never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election.

Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898)

A liar is always lavish of oaths.

Pierre Corneille (1606-1684)

The test of any man lies in action.

Pindar

A lie never lives to be old.

En lögn lever inte för att åldras.

Sophocles (496 f.Kr.-406 f.Kr.)

I love you, and because I love you, I would sooner have you hate me for telling you the truth than adore me for telling you lies.
