’Dogs are faithful and they do not lie’. Honesty and trust are important to Christopher. In The Curious Incident of the Dog in Night-time it’s shown how honesty and trust is important to Chris.

From all of my experiences of lying and seeing lies occur‚ or hearing stories of someone lying‚ I have learned that there really is no point in lying. One small lie you tell someone could cause many different outcomes. Whether it’s just a small fabrication or a huge fallacy‚ or even if it seems

41. You Make Me Lie Down 14 February 2012 I love the song “You make me lie down in green pastures” by Don Moen. It’s been stuck in my head ever since I heard it at a concert. “He makes me lie down” (Psalm 23:2). There’s a secret in this verse we often rush past. The Israelites who read this Psalm when David wrote it almost 1‚000 years before Christ‚ would have known from experience how hard it is to get a sheep to lie down. Keller writes that if a sheep is to lie down‚ he needs to feel absolutely

In the current social context‚ some people say that lying is a form of dishonesty. They live so truthful that they never lie. The truth is good. But in my opinion‚ there are circumstances in which it is better to lie. Basically‚ there are two purposes of lying‚ which is lying with an evil motive and lying with a good intention‚ or more commonly called as “white lies”.

For example‚ in A Lesson Before Dying‚ Grant wanted to come up with a small lie regarding his visit with Jefferson in order to keep Miss Emma’s spirits up. Jefferson didn’t acknowledge the fact that Miss Emma was "sick" or express his gratitude towards her cooking and Grant knew that that would’ve hurt Miss Emma. In order to avoid the despondency‚ Grant told Miss Emma that he got Jefferson to

say that virtues of character lie between an excess and deficiency? Aristotle (384 BC – 322 BC) was a Greek philosopher and polymath‚ a student of Plato. Aristotle had two major works about the Ethics‚ they are Nichomachean Ethics and Eudemian Ethics. Aristotle claims that all the action of a human must aim to something‚ but if you are day-dreaming‚ it won’t be counted as an action. Aristotle also talks about the golden mean. The golden mean can help to support why Aristotle is right to say that

Ericsson’s interpretation of the ways we lie‚ I stumbled upon a quote were she stated “It is an act of subtle arrogance for anyone to decide what is best for anyone else”. She was inferring that an individual can not imply that their suggestion is the best option for anyone else. Clearly‚ that statement is true for numerous reasons. An individual can not state a suggestion towards someone saying it is best for them. While in reality‚ it’s just a faulty lie. People would rather give inaccuracy information

The article I read was “How My Parents Put the Lie to Mad Men” by Robin Hardman. The article was about Hardman’s family life growing up. While she did not say what year‚ she referred to it as the Mad Men time‚ so I would say in the 60s. What was unique about her family was that both her parents worked. This was unusual for this time because most mothers stayed at home with the kids while the father was the breadwinner. Her mother went to college and found an interest in early childhood development
