Lie detection

hanging out with a friend. We watch as he slowly changes his role in Connie’s life and how he uses the power of lie to control, excite, and destroy her. With the help of Pamela Meyer 's’ TED talk called “How to Spot a Liar”, we get to see just why she acts the way she…

Honesty is the avoidance of knowingly deceiving yourself or others. Honesty means not lying, cheating, or stealing, whether it is done with malicious intent or not. This holds true even in situations where dishonesty seems like the easy way out. Perhaps one of the least considered, and possibly most difficult, aspects of honesty is being honest with oneself.

in her lies that she does not even notice nor even care that she does it anymore. A lie that occurred was when Torvald asked about her eating any macaroons. He said “Hasn’t Miss Sweet Tooth been breaking rules in town today?” (Ibsen 4) She kept denying it quickly, but she really did have some macaroons. This is a big deal because Nora and Torvald made it banned in the house at the beginning of the play. Another lie that happened was when Torvald wanted to know if anyone had stopped by the house…

However, Rachel…

true, if people make a lie, they will need to use other lies to cover the first lie, then the lie will like the snowball become bigger and bigger. They have to remember each lie, otherwise when people see though the lie, they will look like naked and show in front of the people. Almost everyone has lied by any kind of reasons, because they think the lie would be the easiest way for that situation to do. Even though people all know honest is better than lie, they still use lie when they face on…

love her. Any conscience-stricken person would realize that their lies have caused serious consequences, but Abigail fails to acknowledge this. She continues to lie to the town and the authority to receive what she wants. Even if she did not realize that her action would have such horrendous effects in the beginning, she continued to lie to save herself and her desire after people started being executed. Her desire is expressed in the first act when she is alone with proctor. Abigail states that…

We went to Charity house to get ready for the football game that night. As we were all sitting on the bed Alazia said that someone…
