SWALLOWING "BIG CHUNKS OF TRUTH" -
"If you have al-
ready made a deci-
sion, and an inventory
of your grosser handi-
caps, you have made a
good beginning. That be-
ing so you have swal-
lowed and digested
some big chunks of
truth about your-
self." (The Big
Book, p. 33)
ON THE OTHER HAND -
"If one of our character defects is dishonesty, we can think about situations in our lives where we normally lie and imagine how it would feel to tell the truth for a change." " . . . [then] we may feel a sense of relief at the possibility of a life free from having to cover small deceits with major fabrications...." (It Works, How & Why, p. 46)
"It is a true
saying that 'One
falsehood leads eas-
ily to another.' "
- Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC) Roman
philosopher / statesman
