But I have an inveterate, almost uncontrollable urge to tell the truth. Truth has an awesome power. It is important and beautiful for its own sake, but also, without it an ordered society is impossible. I am driven to deliver it, and so I often blurt out things that are wholly accurate but inadvisably impolite. | |
