About This Quote
One lie has the power to tarnish a thousand truths. It is a fact that when one person tells a lie, it can make a thousand people believe the opposite. It doesn’t matter if the lie is real or not, because it can be believed by anyone else who hears about it. The one thing that people won’t accept is truth.
