About This Quote
When you finally realize that no one likes the truth, it can be a very lonely place to be. It can leave you feeling like you’re the only person in the world who isn’t like everyone else and who doesn’t fit in with how people think and act. Fortunately, while we all need to stick our necks out and be honest, we all need to cultivate other skills that can help us fit in and get along with others.
