About This Quote
When people lie to us, we often wonder why they're doing it and if we should believe them. This quote from the movie The Princess Bride reads: "I lied. I do that, you know, when it suits me. I would have thought you'd realized that by now." The characters in the movie were referring to the fact that it's often difficult for someone to remember what they've said when they're in a situation where they might not want to be remembered.
