About the Item

From Thomas Eakins’ Portrait of Dr. Samuel D. Gross (The Gross Clinic), 1875 Knowing what we do about insufficient consequences, we will always test the limits of acceptable lying. We’ll come to terms with a spectrum of lying – from little, white lies to bald-faced lies – and a classification system of lies – lies of omission, lies of commission, etc. And it won’t even matter if we’re aware that we’re doing it. Lying has become a tool for achievement. If it benefits us once, we’ll always consider trying it again.
