When the truth is spoken

28Jul06

“When the truth is spoken, it doesn’t need to be adorned. It just needs to be simply stated, and often it only needs to be said once.” - James Nachtwey

So, why do I feel like a lot of the things I say need to be repeated, or never quite sink in, or don’t quite come across the right way?

I think it’s because they’re not really true. Maybe there’s some truth to them, or some kernel of interest, but they’re not exactly right. Often because I don’t understand them yet.

On the other hand, I think simple lies can be nearly as convincing, and have teeth after only being said once.

That’s a dangerous thing.
