Jill met my girlfriend.
Well, I can't say that I approve of that.
No, my old high-school girlfriend.
Oh.
She's kind of annoyed about something I didn't do years ago.
A sin of omission.
It wasn't that bad. When I broke up with this girl, I never called to tell her.
So, you lied to her?
No.
Well, according to Robert Louis Stevenson, you did. He said, "The cruelest lies are often told in silence."
Hm. But didn't Calvin Coolidge say nothing he never said ever did him any harm?
Very good. Thomas Mann once said, "A harmful truth is better than a useful lie."
Not bad. Wait, wait, wait! Turkish proverbs was, "He who tells the truth will be chased out of nine villages."
Excellent. But I believe the final word would be Heywood Broun. "For truth there is no deadline."
Oh, that's three to two. You beat me, Wilson.
