About This Quote

The quote above is based on the fact that you have to be careful when answering questions. For example, you can't say "Yes" or "No". If you answer a direct question with an indirect response, then you are implying that the question is stupid. You are also indicating that you are not being truthful about how you are feeling.

This often happens when people are lying or are not telling the truth. For example, if someone asked, "Do you like me?" and you answered with an indirect answer like "I'm not sure", then it would be implied that they are stupid for asking the question in the first place. You could also be seen as being dishonest because by giving an indirect answer you are giving the impression that you don't know what your true feelings are about them.
