I never encourage deceit, and falsehood, especially if you have got a bad memory, is the worst enemy a fellow can have. The fact is truth is your truest friend, no matter what the circumstances are.

~Abraham Lincoln~

He who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world's believing him. This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time depraves all its good dispositions.
~THOMAS JEFFERSON~

A half-truth does more mischief than a whole lie
~IVAN PANIN~

Other things may change us, but we start and end with family! ~Anthony Brandth~
