We accept too damned many things on the explanations of people who could have good reasons for lying.

If you live in bad faith, lies will appear to you like the truth.

The proximity of a desirable thing tempts one to overindulgence. On that path lies danger.

Here lies a toppled god. His fall was not a small one. We did but build his pedestal, A narrow and a tall one.

Beware of the truth, gentle Sister. Although much sought after, truth can be dangerous to the seeker. Myths and reassuring lies are much easier to find and believe. If you find a truth, even a temporary one, it can demand that you make painful changes. Conceal your truths within words. Natural ambiguity will protect you then.
