“I like it when people lie! Lying is man's only privilege over all other organisms. If you lie - you get to the truth! Lying is what makes me a man. Not one truth has ever been reached without first lying fourteen times or so, maybe a hundred and fourteen, and that's honourable in its way; well, but we can't even lie with our own minds! Lie to me, but in your own way, and I'll kiss you for it.”
