All truth is simple. . . is that not doubly a lie?
People who claim that they're evil are usually no worse than the rest of us. . . It's people who claim that they're good, or any way better than the rest of us, that you have to be wary of.
I never want to fake it. That's my whole thing.
Fake it until you make it.
Share your weaknesses. Share your hard moments. Share your real side. It'll either scare away every fake person in your life or it will inspire them to finally let go of that mirage called "perfection," which will open the doors to the most important relationships you'll ever be a part of.
Courage is fire, and bullying is smoke.
I also hate those holidays that fall on a Monday where you don't get mail, those fake holidays like Columbus Day. What did Christopher Columbus do, discover America? If he hadn't, somebody else would have and we'd still be here. Big deal.
Faking your own death is illegal, yet faking your own life is celebrated
If you think that by threatening me you can get me to do what you want. . . well, that's where you're right. But - and I am only saying this because I care - there's a lot of decaffeinated brands on the market that are just as tasty as the real thing.
Don't we all just really try to fake it well?
What I am looking for is a blessing not in disguise.
There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face.
Some people think that the truth can be hidden with a little cover-up and decoration. But as time goes by, what is true is revealed, and what is fake fades away.
Never pay attention to the rumors and what they assume
Everybody isn't your friend. Just because they hang around you and laugh with you doesn't mean they're for you. Just because they say they got got your back, doesn't mean they won't stab you in it. People pretend well. Jealousy sometimes doesn't live far. So know your circle. At the end of the day real situations expose fake people so pay attention.
There's something magical about spending a Sunday night watching real people at a deli, then watching fake people pretending to be real on TV, then engaging in (arguably) false interaction with (arguably) real people on the Internet. Never at any prior point in time has this been possible.
History is a gallery of pictures in which there are few originals and many copies.
God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.
The liberties of a people never were, nor ever will be, secure, when the transactions of their rulers may be concealed from them.
I got this idea of doing a really serious big work-it would be precisely like a novel, with a single difference: Every word of it would be true from beginning to end.
