1 " When a man tells you he knows the exact truth about anything, you are safe in inferring he is an inexact man. "
― Bertrand Russell
2 " It’s not enough to be able to lie with a straight face; anybody with enough gall to raise on a busted flush can do that. The first way to lie artistically is to tell the truth — but not all of it. The second way involves telling the truth, too, but is harder: Tell the exact truth and maybe all of it…but tell it so unconvincingly that your listener is sure you are lying. "
― Robert A. Heinlein , Time Enough for Love
