Why Don’t You Accept The Truth Of The Day: Honesty Is The Worst Policy

The more honest you are the less wise you will become.

People have been mostly honest to me since I began to understand them, at least until they were denied the opportunity to be dishonest. What happens when someone has lost his chance for dishonesty. He is sent to a special part of hell where his hands are tied behind his back and he has to straddle a hot poker.

We are generally wary of masquerading as our age-old ideals, which have long since expired. Old ideals are like old food; when they’re gone, they stink.

The emergence of Covid 19 and its variants has clearly accelerated the masking passion. But we don’t talk about how we make our masks. That is classified information.

Some fashion designers rushed to capitalize on the rapidly increasing mask demand.

‘Two towels are missing,’ Leena informs her husband.

Cleaning staff could have taken them.”

“Are they both from the Hyatt or Hilton Hotel?” husband inquired.

Who enjoys being honest and being called stupid?

Honorable men never refer to their dishonesty as stealing, but rather as confusions. Thus stealing is not wrong. But it’s only wrong when you get caught.

Who thinks a person who can afford an item will steal shamelessly?

Riches are a guise for sincerity.

Even so, such a person is as trustworthy as a used car salesman.

Rich people are wise. The more money they make, the less they know about how to spend it.

They understand that honesty is cheaper than money. But, at the same time it is a very expensive luxury, if you can afford it.

When you miss the bus and run after it, you arrive just as the door closes, causing you to slip and fall on your face.

There are as many honest people as the day is long.

The most recent variation is periodic honesty. You are proud when you boast someone your honest feelings about something on a periodic basis.
