[Dãrth1]

What is better?

 

[Itachi of the Uchiha clan]

harsh truth

 

[Six Paths]

I guess a harsh truth. I prefer the Harsh Truth

 

[Punk Hazard]

A harsh truth.

 

[Deathwink]

a comforting lie

 

[Tennis Robot]

Hiding from the truth will only make it more painful when the time comes to face it. And you can't hide forever.

 

[Chibiusa]

the harsh truth will hurt a lot more if they got a lie at first then had to learn the truth

Depends on the situation and importance of the matter .​

 

[NineSNS]

Comforting lies are only for the benefit of the ones giving them.

 

[Kishi Uzumaki]

I prefer painful truth but not sure, if many can take it .

 

[Jazzy Stardust]

The truth will set you free.

As the Physicist Carl Sagan, an idol of sorts of mine, put it: "Better by far to embrace the hard truth, than a reassuring fable" (the quote is in the context of religion but I take it to apply to life in general).

Interestingly enough, even though almost everyone has said (and will say) truth, we all lie to ourselves (and others) so frequently...

 

[GhostProject]

People say painful truth, but look at how people respond to media. People are always more apt to believe a convenient lie. Such is politics.

 

[Ryóma]

The truth is always right. There is no escape from it. It will eventually be exposed.

OT: Lol Most of you live with pretty lies so cut the bullshit.

 

[The Work]

Well morally, you should tell the truth even though it can lead to ****.

You can lie, because some people just can never handle the truth.

 

[itachi uchiha fiance]

truth only .......

 

[Ldude]

The truth must be faced eventually.

Acknowledging something is best doesn't necessarily mean the people doing the acknowledging live by it.
