Anyone who’s never experienced the pleasure of betrayal doesn’t know what pleasure is.

Grow your tree of falsehood from a small grain of truth.

If you find excrement somewhere in the village, the chief was the one who put it there.

He that will cheat you at play, will cheat you any way.

It was the men I deceived the most that I loved the most.

And, after all, what is a lie? ’Tis but the truth in masquerade.

Honesty, for me, is usually the worst policy imaginable.

Children and fools cannot lie. 

Cheating is more honorable than stealing. 

In most cases men willingly believe what they wish.

The poor man is ruined as soon as he begins to ape the rich.

Life is the art of being well deceived.

Your piping-hot lie is the best of lies.
