  1. to be honest, there are few people as honest as the narrator in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. as a species, human beings are so preoccupied with fitting in, we forget to think for ourselves sometimes. it takes guts, i guess.

  2. I am an honest man. I was told that long ago. I wish I could believe that I was such. I lie mostly to myself. I am a fraud in that way. I was cursed that I could not a lie to another living soul. But I can lie to myself. Does that mean that I am not living?

  5. Leugens zijn leuk om te vertellen, maar niet leuk om ze te geloven. Heb vandaag ontdekt dat iemand me al een jaar lang van alles voorloog, en ik trapte erin! Die persoon wàs echt zijn leugens voor mij!

  6. i try to be as honest as i can with those that i really care about. on a day to day basis i probably tell lies, upwards of 10 or so, but i would like to think that it isn’t when it really matters. I wish my friends had been more honest with me. that is probably my main motivation for being honest to begin with. “try to be the change you wish to see” and whatnot.

  7. The truth. What’s right and benevolent. Honesty is the best policy. Knowing. Seeing what’s right. Undistorted. Light. Love is honest. Every thought in your mind is what’s real. Honesty is realistic. To be honest is to be a realist. Honest may be good and hopeful, and it may also be blunt.

  8. The truth
    no hiding behind lies
    trust the ones you care
    to be it
    trust your instincts
    to sense it
    trust me
    i’ll trust you
    we need this.

  9. The children told my parents how the teacher had unmercifully banged me on the head and accused me of telling a lie. Although I honestly could not remember a single thing I went along with what the children had said. I felt guilty and wondered could they be lying. I was so small and confused…

  10. Honesty is always the best policy. At least that’s what my mother told me when I was little. She never followed that rule, though. Lies about money, lies about love, lies about me. I found out about her lack of honesty one day in the market when I discovered that I was going to be sold off to an auction in a different country.

  11. Was hat Ehrlichkeit mit Honig zu tun? Sie ist durchscheinend, aber nicht unsichtbar. Sie färbt die Wirklichkeit dahinter mit goldgelbem Licht. Aber es gibt auch nicht transparenten Honig, kristallisiert, weiß meist, zumindest heller scheinend als der flüssige.

  12. honesty is a good thing to have, it tells you the truth about people and makes the world a better place, people who are not honest end up getting themselves in a worse place than they were before they were not honest.

  15. Today I was honest, but I had to make a conscious effort to be. My mind was jumping straight to dishonesty, but thankfully my heart stayed in control. Just when you least expect it, the devil can try to get you, but I didn’t give in, and I was pleased with the results.

  16. She couldn’t be honest, not when he looked at her like that. It was much kinder to lie, say ‘Yeah, I’m okay’, while he went on, trying to stay happy until the cancer took him. It was easier than telling him that her husband was abusing her, that she felt depressed, and that, more than once, drugs had started calling to her. She wanted desperately to tell him that she hadn’t given in, that she was still fighting, but…she’d have to be honest to tell him that bit of joy.

    Honesty was not something she could be all the time. It was much better to simply be nice.

  20. Honest. Huh. Honest. You have to be honest. But you aren’t, at least not about your feelings. You’re never honest. Although you wish you were. So do I. but it’s not like anybody would care… ever.

  21. Honest, is something that I love to be, of course when it doesn’t involve hurting someone’s feelings in the process…. Although at times some may ask for an honest opinion, and they are given that opinion only and only if they can take it in, without being hurt or mad.

  22. “Just say it. It’s fine, dear,” he told me. His breath was hot on my neck and it smelled of sweet honeysuckle. I couldn’t make myself be honest with another guy. The only time I had… It had turned out horribly. I knew I wouldn’t be as bitter as I was now if it were not for that one incident. But I knew Jared… More than he knew. I had been linked with him before, hadn’t I? Before he had to leave, which I learned was for my safety. I knew now that I could trust him no matter what.
    “I love you,” I confessed.

  23. honesty is a weird thing. not many people are completely honest all the time. in my opinion even those who say that they are aren’t. it takes a lot

  25. “andy,”begain bogdan,”give me a honest evaluation of all the injuries.don’t pull no punched.don’t give it to me gently.i need to know how badly i have hurt our parents.”

  26. I think honesty is often underrated because i believe people need to feel the sting of the truth in order to appreciate that which has happened. Blindness offers no chance to showcase strength or inspiration. Honesty is change and with change we are able to grow and become that which we are not.

  27. Honesty is always the best policy, no matter what situation. Honesty lets you be the true you, and allows others to see you for who you really are. Being honest can be hurtful, but lies can be even worse. Honesty is an important factor in relationships between friends, family and partners.

  29. Oh this is important. So many people say they’re honest. Who is anymore? Im close. The only thing I really lie about is my thought process. You always talk about honesty…

  30. Honestly, I don’t know what to write here. I don’t even know if I want to write here. I’m nervous that you’ll see what I’m writing, and that you will judge me to be unworthy. I am scared that people will know who I am and what I’ve done. I worry that my honesty will sometimes get me in trouble. I am afraid that I cannot be honest, that I simply lack the capacity.

  31. Honest, is the word that discribes who you are and who your are not in the darkness

  32. He wanted to be honest with her.
    He needed to be honest with her.
    But how to tell her?
    How to come forward and say that he missed her?
    That she being present at his father’s funeral was like a flame that kindled the hope within his heart.
    “I wanted to be here,” she had said.
    And that single statement had made a million questions arise.
    Are you here for me?
    Do you love me still?
    Is possible for us to get back to the way we were?
    But… he could never ask…
    And so…he would never know.

  33. When i think in my father i think his the most honest person in the whole world, cuz’ he really is.

  35. Honesty is the best policy. That’s what I’ve been told my whole life.
    But what if you break the honesty? Everybody has at some point. It’s easy to get away with it. I know I’ve told millions of lies.
