About This Quote
There must be repressed truth even in lies. Rhetorical question: Imagine you are an author writing a book. You tell your readers there is a secret message in your book but you don't want to let them know the details. Therefore, you make up quotes to describe what the secret message is. You can lie and say it is something and then change your mind and say, "No, it's actually something else." Or you can tell people some things but not all of them and still maintain enough credibility to make the statement believable. However, if you lie and tell people everything about your secret message as if there is no such thing as a secret message then as soon as someone finds out that there is no secret message they will be able to deduce what you're saying is all lies.
