The difference between a saint and a hypocrite is that one lies for his religion, the other by it.
- Minna Antrim
No one lies so boldly as the man who is indignant.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
The most common lie is that which one lies to himself; lying to others is relatively an exception.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
The let-alone lies not in your good will.
- William Shakespeare
One lies in truth,
One truth is lies.
One path is death,
One path is life.
One question asked,
The path to guide.
- John Connolly
But sleep? On a night like this? What an idea! Just think of how many thoughts a blanket smothers while one lies alone in bed, and how many unhappy dreams it keeps warm.
- Franz Kafka

It is not the real punishment. The only effectual one, the only deterrent and softening one, lies in the recognition of sin by conscience.
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Now, I know from experience that the trouble with one lie is that it usually takes more lies to cover it up. And if you don't watch out, you wind up telling lies to cover up the lies that are covering up the original lie.
- Wendelin Van Draanen
Lucas had told me only one lie, ever; he kept the secret of black Cross because it wasn't his secret to tell. In every other way, he'd been honest with me and shared the hard truths nobody else thought I deserved to hear.
- Claudia Gray
Why would anyone lie? The truth is always more colorful.
- James Hall
In God's eyes, a man who teaches one truth and nothing else is more righteous than a man who teaches a million truths and one lie.

- Judith Mcnaught
Let's put one lie to rest for all time: the lie that men are oppressed, too, by sexism-the lie that there can be such a thing as men's liberation groups.
- Robin Morgan
People think that a liar gains a victory over his victim. What I've learned is that a lie is an act of self-abdication, because one surrenders one's reality to the person to whom one lies, making that person one's master, comdemning oneself from then on to faking the sort of reality that person's view requires to be faked.
- Ayn Rand
Everyone lies... It may not be about the same thing, but everyone does it. People do it to fit in, people do it to feel civilized, and there are many more reasons. You can be an honest person, and still be a liar. Everyone lies, including your God. If you don't believe so, then you are simply lying to yourself.
- Lionel Suggs
How can the confessor teach/ those who are lost and sick at heart,/ when he himself, among the sinners,/ is worst, and most forsaken?/ It is only a game we play/ with other people's sins./ Besides, everyone knows/ that everyone lies confessing.
