“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.
