Truth was funny, because it was an insistent thing, maybe as powerful and insistent as some force of nature, the push of water or wind. You could keep it out only so long, but it had its own will and its own needs, and maybe you could keep it at bay with lies, but not for long, not for always. Deb Caletti
About This Quote

The idea of truth in this quote is very interesting. We all know the truth, so we cannot deny it. However, we can use lies to keep the truth at bay. In our lives, there are many things that we would want to hide from others.

Perhaps they are private mistakes or events that we would rather not talk about. In some situations, it may be a case of keeping secrets from ourselves. There are several different reasons why people would want to hide the truth from themselves and others, but they all have one thing in common: they are lies.

The most important thing in life is to tell the truth no matter what.
