CAMUS, Albert. “One sometimes sees more clearly in the man who lies than in the man who tells the truth. Truth, like the light, blinds. Lying, on the other hand, is a beautiful twilight that gives to each object its value”

Albert Camus (Nobel Prize-winning French writer): “One sometimes sees more clearly in the man who lies than in the man who tells the truth. Truth, like the light, blinds. Lying, on the other hand, is a beautiful twilight that gives to each object its value” (Susan Ratcliffe, editor, “Oxford Dictionary of Quotations by Subject”, Oxford University Press, 2000, page 223).
