There is beauty in truth, even if it's painful. Those who lie, twist life so that it looks tasty to the lazy, brilliant to the ignorant, and powerful to the weak. But lies only strengthen our defects. They don't teach anything, help anything, fix anything or cure anything. Nor do they develop one's character, one's mind, one's heart or one's soul. Unknown
About This Quote

If you lie about the truth, you will go down in history as a person who did not care about other people. The world would remember you for your lack of character. On the other hand, if you tell the truth even when it hurts, then everything that happens to you will teach you something. You will learn how to be strong even when it's painful.

You will learn how to take care of yourself while others are taking care of you. And at the end of all this, you will become a better person because of your determination to tell the truth.
