About the Item
From Thomas Eakins’ Portrait of Dr. Samuel D. Gross (The Gross Clinic), 1875
As we seek this fine line separating safe lying from detrimental misdirection, we often have to cross it in order to see it.
We’ll always take lying too far on occasion. Perhaps our best hope is to look for canaries in the coal mine of lying. Learning to lie involves a lot of observation of other liars. Recognizing the failures of others give us an idea of our own fictionalizing boundaries.
