“It was a lie and I detected it at once. As an accomplished fibber myself, I spotted the telltale signs of an untruth before they were halfway out of his mouth: the excessive detail, the offhand delivery, and the wrapping-up of it all in casual chitchat.”
― Alan Bradley, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie

“When you become complacent with someone lying, whether it is a close friend, the media, or your government, then you have essentially given them permission to continue to do so and most often at your expense.”
― Gary Hopkins

“Experience has tutored me well that most will lie or cheat to get the better hand. It's why I prefer solitude to social interaction.
- Bethany”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, Styxx

“If you can't do it, don't pledge to do it. Don't be a liar; say only what you can do. It's better for you to have a "single sentence" manifesto about your life which is fulfilled than to have 25 chapters' theories about your visions that remain undone!”
― Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes
