Not only do I lie, I take real pleasure in lying, in the transmission of magic effects.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Well, when I was younger, I lied all the time, because once you understand the power of lying, it's really like magic because you transform reality for people.
A great lie is like a great fish on dry land; it may fret and fling and make a frightful bother, but it cannot hurt you. You have only to keep still, and it will die of itself.
Sometimes you have to lie. One often has to distort a thing to catch its true spirit.
I don't really lie about anything, I have to be honest. I like to live with the truth.
I don't think that we necessarily lie. I mean, we make our living by pretending that we're someone else. I don't tell tall tales. I always tell the truth.
People lie, and they always are very very creative in finding new ways to lie.
Lying is the greatest of all sins.
I don't tend to lie. If I do, it's a little one. Like, 'I'm only around the corner...' when really I'm 10 minutes away.
I never lie. I believe everything I say, so it's not a lie.
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.
