About lies!

Bones - season 6 episode 20 The Pinocchio in the Planter

(Lance Sweets) - There is a theory that by speaking the absolute truth we free ourselves of any impression to make a good impression and that become truly free. 

(Special Agent Seeley Booth) - So if they just say whatever they want they piss people off.

(Lance Sweets) - Yeah, it can be very aggressive.

(Dra Temperance Brennan) - I see no reason why telling the truth would be considered aggressive.

(Lance Sweets) - It is when you do without exception. I mean the small fictions that we call white lies play a crucial roll in human interactions.

(Special Agent Seeley Booth) - The glue that holds us together.

(Dra Temperance Brennan) - How? A world without lies would be far more efficient.

(Special Agent Seeley Booth) - If no one had any feelings. But people do.

(Dra Temperance Brennan) - If you think you are protecting me by avoiding the truth you inevitable cause greater harm.

(Special Agent Seeley Booth) - I wouldn’t do that to you.

(Dra Temeperance Brennan) - Lie to spare my feelings?

(Dr Hodgins) - I am attempting to open a honest dialogue between us by stating what I think regardless of the consequences.
