Quote

I have always loved truth so passionately that I have often resorted to lying as a way of introducing it into the minds which were ignorant of its charms.

Lies can be wonderful things, and when a lie is told artfully, if it's done with a degree of craftsmanship, I can't help but admire the liar.

Liars need to have good memories.

Writers, all the good ones, are Natural Born Liars.

The best liars lie with their eyes rather than with their words. This might put writers at a disadvantage.

As a child I was a great liar. Fortunately my mother liked my lies. I promised her marvelous things.

I don't tolerate liars. When somebody lies to me, that's really, like, just unbearable.

Not only do I lie, I take real pleasure in lying, in the transmission of magic effects.

I lied for years and years. And the thing about lies and secrets is that they eat you alive from the inside. I would not wish that pain on anyone.

I'm the most terrific liar you ever saw in your life.
