About This Quote

...nothing helps a lie float like a hopeful listener" is an important reminder to us all that it is so easy to become so caught up in the tale that we are telling that the words just seem to flow out of us, without our even realizing it. We can't help but believe what we are saying because of how convincing it feels, just as the hopeful listener makes the lie feel more real.
