Honesty is a Contradiction

To say one thing and do another is hypocrisy. But, to say one thing and then say another is honesty. The nature of truth is such that it can never be fully expressed with words. So, if your words do not contradict themselves then you are probably not being honest. In fact, a sure sign of a dishonest person is extreme verbal consistency, usually accompanied by hypocritical deeds.

"Consistency is a paste jewel that only cheap men cherish" - William Allen White
