The fact is that nothing is more difficult to believe than the truth; conversely, nothing seduces like the power of lies, the greater the better. It's only natural, and you will have to find the right balance. Having said that, let me add that this particular old woman hasn't been collecting only years; she has also collected stories, and none sadder or more terrible than the one she's about to tell you. You have been at the heart of this story without knowing it until today ...

There are few reasons for telling the truth, but for lying the number is infinite.

Uno nunca miente a la gente; se mienten a ellos mismos. Un buen mentiroso les da a los bobos lo que quieren oír. Ese es el secreto.

Quería creerle con esa ansía que confiere la sospecha de que la verdad hace daño y que los cobardes viven más y mejor, aunque se en la prisión de sus propias mentiras.
