We confess our little faults to persuade people that we have no large ones.

We only acknowledge small faults in order to make it appear that we are free from great ones.

There are things to confess that enrich the world, and things that need not be said.

We're all proud of making little mistakes. It gives us the feeling we don't make any big ones.

I have a saying: I try to make the world smaller by making the party bigger.

We confess our bad qualities to others out of fear of appearing naive or ridiculous by not being aware of them.

So I think we have an obligation with our size to make sure that we are open to what people have to say to us because the people who criticize us, they're not all mean-spirited.

Now, I know a lot of things in the big man's world are not what they seem: a lot of people are out for themselves, and you can't always trust what someone says.

How few there are who have courage enough to own their faults, or resolution enough to mend them.

If someone's lying about something small, you don't know what else they're lying about. I'm a big girl, I can handle the truth - even if it's not good news.
